I'm aware that when the pronoun is also the object of a sentence we use these: me instead of I, them instead of they and so on.
But when I say:
He is a teacher, and her?
Why do I say her instead of she if in this case I cannot identify a direct object.
Also when answering, would I say
Her, she is also a teacher.
or
She, she is also a teacher.
I'm really confused
