POSSESSIVE PRONOUNS
The Possessive pronouns are:

MINE / YOURS / HIS / HERS / ITS / OURS / YOURS / THEIRS


To understand these pronouns it is important to review the pronouns that we already
know.

These are the pronouns that we know so far. Remember that the Subject and Object
pronouns refer to people, places and things (nouns) and the Possessive adjectives and
possessive pronouns refer to possessions.
Como vemos estos son todos los pronombres aprendidos hasta la fecha. Les hago
recordar que es importante aprenderlos y saber las diferencias que existen entre ellos.
Los Subject y object pronouns van a tomar el lugar de sustantivos y los possessive
adjectives y possessive pronouns se utiliza para expresar posesin. Les recomiendo
escuchar bien el audio para despejar dudas.

leccon 5 de posessive adjectives AQUI
POSSESSIVE PRONOUNS vs POSSESSIVE ADJECTIVES
We use both to talk about possession but they have different rules. LETS COMPARE

Possessive Adjectives (my, your, his, her, its, our, your, their)

When we use the possessive adjectives IT IS NECESSARY TO PUT A NOUN AFTER


the possessive adjective.
Example:
I didnt take my book. (YOU NEED TO PUT BOOK)
Maria went to her house.
We need to put the noun after the possessive adjective my.

Possessive Pronouns (mine, yours, his, hers, its, ours, yours, theirs)

When we use the possessive pronouns WE DO NOT PUT THE NOUN AFTER the
possessive pronoun.
Example: We are talking about a book
- That is mine.
- Maria didnt take hers.
It is not necessary to put book because possessive pronouns can stand alone.

*** Entonces entendemos que con los possessive adjectives es necesario que sea
seguido por un sustantivo pero los possessive pronouns pueden ir solos. Cuando usamos
los possessive pronouns se tiene que tener claro de que uno esta hablando sino lo
correcto es usar los possessive adjectives.
EJEMPLO DE COMO SE USAN LOS POSSESSIVE ADJECTIVES Y LOS
POSSESSIVE PRONOUNS
Whose book is this? (Usar el question word whose para hablar de posesin y de usar
el sustantivo book despues del QW)
a) It is my book. (Here we use the possessive adjective my followed by the noun
book)
b) It is mine. (Here we use the possessive pronoun mine and we do not need to put
the noun after it).
NOTE: It is also possible to use the POSSESSIVE NOUNS (Ver leccin 5 AQUI)
Ejemplo usando el POSSESSIVE NOUN
- It is Juans book. (Se utiliza el sustantivo propio aumentandole apostrofe y s).
