Possessive adjectives are used to show

possession or ownership of something. While

we use them when we refer to people, it is
more in the sense of relationship than
ownership.

Possessive pronouns makes the sentence

less confusing because the same information
is not being repeated.

Of yours: It is also very common to say a

friend/some friends + of + possessive
pronouns.

I saw one of your friends last night.

I saw a friend of yours last night.

Both of these sentences are correct and both

common in English.

Object pronouns are what is affected by the

action of the subject. They are used instead of
nouns, usually because we already know what the
object is. It avoids repetition. We normally use
object pronouns after a verb or a preposition.

“It” needs to have already been mentioned or obvious

to the listener what you are referring to.

 You are sitting on it! (The listener probably

doesn't know what the speaker refers to).

 The letter is on the sofa. You are sitting on it! (It

is obvious in the second sentence that the
reference is to the letter).
