-There is a special form of the pronoun used in Gaelic to indicate special emphasis on the pronoun. There is no equivalent in English except stress. For example, if we wanted to say ''he saw ME'', the Gaelic would use the special form ''mise''. The emphatic forms are also obligatory when used with [[Equative (definition)|identificational]] uses of copula (e.g. I am John = ''Is mise Iain'').

 The basic personal pronouns of Gaelic are used in neutral contexts (without emphasis) to indicate pronouns such as ''I, you, he, she, we, they''. There is no distinction between [[Nominative Case (definition)|nominative]] and [[Accusative Case (definition)|accusative]] pronouns. (i.e. there is no difference between ''I'' and ''me'', ''he'' and 'him'', ''she'' and ''her'', ''we'' and ''us'' and ''they'' and ''them'' in Gaelic.
 Notes:
 *There are two forms for the 2nd person singular form (''thu'' and 'tu''), ''tu'' is used after verbs in the [[Relative Future (tense)|relative future]] tense and [[Conditional (mood)|conditional]] mood.
 *The ''sibh'' is used both for plural ''you'' and as a polite form of the singular
 *There is no neuter pronoun (''it'') in Gaelic. Instead either ''e'' or ''i'' is used depending upon the [[Gender (definition)|gender]] of the noun being used.
 *In the plural there is no gender distinction, one form (''iad'') is used for both genders.
