Spell Bee Word: Him


What does him mean?

Word: Him

Part of Speech: Pronoun

Meaning: Him means that boy or man, as in I helped him.

Sounds like: hymn (A song of praise to God, often sung in church.)

How do you spell him?

Syllables: him

Tricky part: Him ends with one m. Its sound-alike hymn ends with m and n, so children sometimes add an extra letter after the m.

Watch out for: himm, hime, himn

Memory tip: Him is the short word for a boy; hymn is the longer word for a song. For him, one m and you are done.

Him in a sentence

Example 1: I gave him my red crayon.

Example 2: Papa was late, so we waited for him.

Example 3: Tell him to come for dinner.

Fun Fact

Him, his and he all come from the same old English word family.
