POSSESSIVE PRONOUNS in English
Grammar Rules
Examples of possessive pronouns are mine, yours, his, hers, ours, theirs, its.
Unlike personal pronouns, these usually stand alone and do not have to precede a noun.
E.g.
• Karen told me that she had lost her phone. That must be hers.
• They have found their seats. Have you spotted ours?
• The cat is looking for its master.
Note: The possessive pronoun its is different from it’s. It’s is a contracted form of it is.
