Pronouns are a basic part of language. Getting rid of them makes communication way harder. Unless you speak Spanish, I guess.
Do you think we don't use pronouns in Spanish? Because we absolutely do.
I know they exist, it's simply the fact that they're not usually required in daily speech, since verb conjugation gives the context of the pronoun anyway.
Yes, they are required and used. First, verb conjugation has nothing to do with object pronouns. You always need those. Second, subject pronouns may not always be required but are used much more often than they are omitted.
It's not good practice to comment with such confidence when you're so wrong.
I guess I learned something.
For subject pronouns, object pronouns are obligatory
Even subject pronouns are certainly used in everyday speech, even if less often compared to English.
Don't objectify pronouns, weirdo.
The pronouns were asking for it, wearing that skirt!
