Questions about "本" as Pronoun One time, I watched a film and noticed a different use of "本". As I know, "本" is generally used as classifiers. But this time, I learned that "本" here used as pronoun. Here's the example I took from the film.


  请于本月八日上午九时，准时前来本公司录音部试音.


From the sentence above, after "本", "月" and "公司" is added as noun. I have done some research and I found some resource at Chinese Grammar Wiki, but I don't clearly understand. Question from me: 


What kind of noun can be used after "本"? Will any kinds of noun be fit after followed by "本"?
On what case should we use "本" as pronoun?


Any help would be greatly appreciated.
As a pronoun 本 has two meanings, here’s oxfords definitions and example sentences

 PRONOUN
1 自己方面的 one's own
本单位
one's own department
本校
our school
▶ 本地, 本国, 本人
2 这 this
本案被告
defendant in this case
本合同
the present contract
本星期

In the second meaning you can see it means the same as 这 - so to answer question number one: yeah pretty much any noun can come after it but this is markedly more formal than 这 or 这个 - might sound very 官腔 if you were to use it in casual speech.
To answer question number two, when should we normally use 本 as a pronoun there are quite a few instances:
本周 if you’re a Starbucks guy this is a big one - this is their terminology for brewed coffee as opposed to espresso based drinks. If you’re preparing public speaking addresses 本周 is okay for this week as well but a bit stuffy for my liking.
本人 is good for addressing others personally like:

你本人怎么想呢？

本地 is another common one used often in conversation.
