The article deals with the features of modern functioning of pronouns associated with the processes of substantivation and predicativation of the pronoun vocabulary (including phraseological units with a pronominal component), which relate to the phenomena of transposition in parts of speech. The basis for the transposition can be called the subjective potential of pronouns, arising from their categorical meaning, namely from their abstract semantic nature. The subjectivity of pronouns manifests itself in their direct relation to the speech act, to the figure of the speaker, which allows us to specify their semantics in the context of the speech situation. As a result of the transposition, the pronominal vocabulary can occupy a position in the center of another part of speech (не по себе, ничего), on the periphery (ничего, не в себе, я, себя), in the syncretism zone (я, ты, себя, весь из себя, весь такой).
