My questions:
Please answer these two questions. There will be an example explaining why I ask these two questions. After you reading the example, please answer these two questions (1) and (2).
(1) Can a pronoun refer to a noun wherever the noun first appears as long as the pronoun can be understood by the reader and listener?
(2) Is the use of pronouns restricted by grammar structures?
Example:
Friend: Why do you support the movement?
Me: The movement can help alleviate the problem which women have for them.
The bold part "which women have" is a relative clause.
"for them" I wrote here is not a part of the relative clause, and I want the word "them" to refer to "women".
What I think about the example and how it makes me ask the two questions (1) and (2).
This whole sentence just sounds awkward to me. I wonder if it is because there are rules saying that pronouns cannot be used in or refer to some grammar structures such as relative clauses, etc.
However, this idea doesn't make sense to me although I had never really thought about it before.
So, please allow me to repeat my question:
(1) Can a pronoun refer to a noun wherever the noun first appears as long as the pronoun can be understood by the reader and listener?
(2) Is the use of pronouns restricted by grammar structures?
By the way,
I have asked a similar question on English Learner Stack. I appreciate the help I got there, but it seems that people didn't answer my questions directly. I think it was my fault that I didn't make my question clear enough. I hope this time the questions I am asking is unambiguous.
