The [[personal pronoun]]s of Bislama closely resemble those of [[Tok Pisin]]. They feature four grammatical numbers (singular, dual, trial and plural) and also encode the [[clusivity]] distinction: 1st person non-singular pronouns (equivalent of English ''we'') are described as ''inclusive'' if they include the addressee (i.e. {you + I}, {you + I + others}), but ''exclusive'' otherwise (i.e. {I + other people}). Bislama pronouns do not [[Grammatical case|decline]].

The third person singular ''hem'', also written ''em'' lacks gender distinction, so it can mean either he, she or it. The [[predicate (grammar)|predicate]] marker '''i''' – a particle which is placed before the [[verbal phrase]] of a sentence – is sometimes merged with the third person pronoun, giving the words '''hemi''' and '''emi''', respectively, in singular, and '''oli''' in plural.<ref>https://www.livelingua.com/course/peace-corps/Bislama_Handbook, p. 11-13, 49 and 57</ref>
