Pronouns
Pronouns are small words that take the place of a noun. Pronouns are words like:
he, you, ours, themselves, some, each... We can use a pronoun instead of a
noun. If we didn't have pronouns, we would have to repeat a whole lot of nouns.
Personal or Subject
Pronouns
Personal pronouns represent specific people or things. We use them depending
on:
number: singular (eg: I) or plural (eg: we)
person: 1st person (eg: I), 2nd person (eg: you) or 3rd person (eg: he)
gender: male (eg: he), female (eg: she) or neuter (eg: it)
case: subject (eg: we) or object (eg: us)
We use personal pronouns in place of the person or people that we are talkingabout.
Ex. “My name is Josef” ; we use "I", not "Josef".
When someone is talking direct to you, We almost always use "you", not your name.
When we are talking about another person, “John”, we may start with "John" but then
use "he".

Possessive Adjectives
Be careful!
Possessive
adjectives,
also called
possessive
determiners
(my/your etc.),
come before a
noun, whereas,
possessive
pronouns (mine/
yours etc.)
replace a noun
The possessive adjective needs to agree with the possessor and not with the thing that ispossessed.
Examples
My car is very old. (I) Her boyfriend is very friendly. (She)
Our dog is black. (We) Their homework is on the table. (They)
Like all adjectives in English, they are always located directly in front of the noun they referto. (Possessive
Adjective + Noun).
We do not include an S to the adjective when the noun is plural like in many other languages.
Examples:
Our cars are expensive. (Correct) Ours cars are expensive. (Incorrect)
However, the verb that is used needs to be in agreement with the noun - if the noun issingular then the verb
is singular; if the noun is plural then the verb is plural.
Examples:
My pen is black. (Singular) / My pens are black. (Plural)
Our child is intelligent. (Singular) / Our children are intelligent. (Plural)

Table created by :Susana Gonzalez (2021)
The possessive form is used with nouns referring to people, groups of people,
countries, and animals. It shows a relationship of belonging between one thing and
another. To form the possessive, add apostrophe + s to the noun. If the noun is plural,
or already ends in s, just add an apostrophe after the s. Examples:
the car of John = John's car the room of the girls = the girls' room
clothes for men = men's clothes the boat of the sailors = the sailors' boat
For names ending in s, you can either add an apostrophe + s, or just an apostrophe.
The first option is more common. When pronouncing a possessive name, we add the
sound /z/ to the end of the name. Examples:
Thomas's book (or Thomas' book) Jesus's shop (or Jesus' shop)
the Smiths's house (or the Smiths' house)
Functions Of The Possesive
America has some gold reserves. = They are America's gold reserves.
The possessive can also express where someone works, studies or spends time.
Examples:
John goes to this school. = This is John's school.
