-== Structure of Possessive Adjectives in Kazakh ==
+| біздің мектеп || bizdin mektep || our school
-Possessive adjectives in the Kazakh language are formed by adding a possessive suffix to the end of a noun. The possessive suffixes vary depending on the person and number of the possessor. Let's take a look at the possessive suffixes for each person and number:
+|-
-st person singular: -ım (-ым in Cyrillic)
+| сіздердің аттарыңыз || sizderdin attarınız || your names (plural)
-nd person singular: -ıñ (-ың in Cyrillic)
-rd person singular: -ı (-ы in Cyrillic)
-st person plural: -ımız (-ымыз in Cyrillic)
-nd person plural: -ıñız (-ыңыз in Cyrillic)
-rd person plural: -ları (-лары in Cyrillic)
-It is important to note that the possessive suffixes are added to the noun and not to the article. For example, "my book" would be "kitap-ım" (кітапым in Cyrillic) and not "kitapım" (кітапым in Cyrillic).

-== Cultural Insight: Possessiveness in Kazakh Culture ==
+| менің атым || menin atym || my name
-In Kazakh culture, there is a strong emphasis on family and community. It is common for individuals to have a strong sense of ownership and possessiveness towards their family members and belongings. Possessive adjectives play an important role in expressing these feelings of ownership and connection. For example, when a person refers to their family members, they use possessive adjectives to indicate the close bond they have with them. In Kazakh society, it is considered a sign of respect and love to use possessive adjectives when referring to family members and close friends.
