Personal Pronouns
These
are not essential in Latin because the verb person is contained in the verb
itself e.g. amo=I love.
When
they are used with a verb it is often for extra emphasis or to point out a
contrast e.g. ego clamo sed tu taces=I
shout but you are quiet.
NB there is no vocative in I and we
