Possessive pronouns

-We learned before how to talk about persons’ possession


of things using the possessive adjectives .

-We know that possessive adjectives come before a noun.


Ex: I have a dress,my dress is pink.

Now we are going to learn how to talk about persons’s


possession of things without using the noun. Ex:

-This is my ball, it is mine.

-This is Ali’s bike, it is his.

 Here we will see the possessive adjective and the

Possessive pronoun for each subject pronoun:
