Pronouns after as Pronouns in the objective case are used after as in an informal style e.g: She doesn’t earn as much as him. You are as beautiful as her.In a formal style, we use subject + verb after as e.g: She doesn’t earn as much as he does. You are as beautiful as she is.Note that pronouns in the nominative case (e.g. he, she, they) without a verb are unusual after as in modern English e.g : She doesn’t sing as well as me. OR She doesn’t sing as well as I do. (More natural than ‘She doesn’t sing as well as I.)
