Showing Who Owns Something
We often want to say that something belongs to someone. We use special words called possessive adjectives before a noun to do this. Today we will learn four of them: my, your, his, and her.
These words match the person who owns the object.
my book
your book
his ball
her bicycle
- I have a book. ➔ It is my book.
- You have a pen. ➔ It is your pen.
- He has a dog. ➔ It is his dog.
- She has a cat. ➔ It is her cat.
Possessive adjectives never change. They are the same for one thing (singular) and many things (plural).
- my book (Correct) | my books (Correct)
- mys books (Incorrect)
