Pronumele posesive arată așa (cele în bold):
Andrei, Alina și Louis merg în vacanță cu încă doi prieteni. La aeroport, își lasă bagajele pe jos, iar când să facă îmbarcarea, fiecare își strânge lucrurile și își caută bagajele.
Studiază interacțiunile:
Andrei: Is this your bag?
Louis: Yes, it’s mine. În loc de It’s my bag. (folosim pronumele posesiv ca să evităm repetarea substantivului)
Alina: Are these your shoes?
Andrei: No, they’re his. (arătând spre Louis) În loc de They’re Louis’s shoes.
Louis: Whose pens are these?
Alina: They’re theirs. (arătând spre cei doi prieteni) În loc de They’re their pens.
Adjectivul posesiv vine înaintea unui substantiv.
My coffee
Your coat
His cup
Her cat
Its toy
Our house
Their job
Dar pronumele posesiv înlocuiește adjectivul posesiv + substantivul ca să evităm repetarea substantivului.
– Is this your coat?
– Yes, it’s mine. În loc de It’s my coat.
– Whose coat is it?
– It’s hers. În loc de It’s her coat.
It’s my phone → It’s mine
It’s your cat → It’s yours
This is his Coke → This is his
Those are her shoes → Those are hers
That’s its toy → NU zicem That’s its
These are our savings → These are ours
That’s their house → That’s theirs
