This is a video devoted to the 3rd person pronoun (is, ea, id) in Latin.

Original music and video by me.

LYRICS:
[singular]

nominative: is ea id
genitive: eius
dative: eī
accusative: eum eam id
ablative: eō eā eō

[plural]

nominative: eī eae ea
genitive: eōrum eārum eōrum
dative: eīs
accusative: eōs eās ea
ablative: eīs

3rd person pronoun, is ea id – like other pronouns it stands in for another noun
and it takes the gender of the noun it stands in for

[singular]

nominative: is ea id
genitive: eius
dative: eī
accusative: eum eam id
ablative: eō eā eō

[plural]

nominative: eī eae ea
genitive: eōrum eārum eōrum
dative: eīs
accusative: eōs eās ea
ablative: eīs


The third person pronoun – is, ea, id – takes the gender and the number of the noun it stands in for, and it takes the case that it would take according to the function in its own clause

you can translate it as "he" or "she" or "it" or "him" or "her" or "they" or "those things" or "that man" or "this woman" – really whatever English words you would use to refer to the thing that the form of "is, ea, id" is being used to refer to in Latin

So, for instance, if instead of using the genitive singular "puellae," you've got "eius," you can just translate it as "hers" or "of her" (as the case may be)

[singular]

nominative: is ea id
genitive: eius
dative: eī
accusative: eum eam id
ablative: eō eā eō

[plural]

nominative: eī eae ea
genitive: eōrum eārum eōrum
dative: eīs
accusative: eōs eās ea
ablative: eīs
