== Possessive Pronouns ==

One of the primary ways to express possession in North Azerbaijani is through the use of possessive pronouns. Possessive pronouns are words that indicate ownership or belonging. They replace nouns or noun phrases and agree with the possessor in terms of gender, number, and case.
| 2nd Person Singular || sənin || /sænɪn/ || your


Here are the possessive pronouns in North Azerbaijani:
|-
 
| 3rd Person Singular || onun || /onʊn/ || his/her/its
 
|-
 
| 1st Person Plural || bizim || /bɪzɪm/ || our
 
|-
 
| 2nd Person Plural || sizin || /sɪzɪn/ || your (plural/formal)
 
|-
 
| 3rd Person Plural || onların || /onlɑrɪn/ || their
 
|}
 
As you can see, each pronoun corresponds to a specific person or group. These are used to express ownership in various contexts.
 
=== How to Use Possessive Pronouns in Sentences ===
 
Using possessive pronouns in sentences is straightforward. Here are some important points to remember:
 
* The possessive pronoun typically precedes the noun.
 
* The noun itself does not change; only the possessive pronoun reflects ownership.
 
Now, let’s look at some examples to illustrate how to use these pronouns effectively.

=== Examples ===
These examples show how to connect possessive pronouns with nouns to express who owns what.
 
=== Expressing Possession with Nouns ===
 
In addition to using possessive pronouns, you can also express possession by using nouns directly. This construction is often used in North Azerbaijani.
 
For example, instead of saying “my book,” you can say “the book of me,” which in North Azerbaijani is “mənim kitabım.” This is a more descriptive way of expressing possession.
 
Here are some examples:
 
{| class="wikitable"


Let's look at some examples of how possessive pronouns are used in North Azerbaijani:
! North Azerbaijani !! Pronunciation !! English


* Mənim evim. (My house.)
|-
* Sənin kitabın. (Your book.)
* Onun dostu. (His/her friend.)
* Bizim oğlumuz. (Our son.)
* Sizin masanız. (Your table.)
* Onların maşını. (Their car.)


In these examples, the possessive pronouns are used to indicate ownership or belonging. Notice how the pronouns agree with the possessor in terms of gender and number.
| mənin dostum || /mænɪn dɔstʊm/ || my friend


== Other Constructions for Expressing Possession ==
|-


Apart from possessive pronouns, there are other constructions in North Azerbaijani that can be used to express possession. Let's explore some of these constructions:
| sənin qızın || /sænɪn qɪzɪn/ || your daughter


=== The Genitive Case ===
|-
 
| onun atası || /onʊn ɑtɑsɪ/ || his/her father
 
|-


In North Azerbaijani, the genitive case is often used to show possession. The genitive case is formed by adding the suffix "-ın/ın/un" to the noun. This suffix agrees with the possessor in terms of gender and number.
| bizim şəhərimiz || /bɪzɪm ʃæˈhærɪmɪz/ || our city


Here are some examples:
|-
 
| sizin kitablarınız || /sɪzɪn kɪtɑblɑrɪnɪz/ || your (plural) books

In North Azerbaijani culture, expressing possession is an important aspect of communication. It reflects the strong sense of ownership and belonging that is valued in the society. Possession is often used to establish relationships and connections between people and objects.

What are Possessive Pronouns?[edit | edit source]

Possessive pronouns are words that indicate ownership or possession. In North Azerbaijani, these pronouns change according to the person, just like in English. They help you indicate who something belongs to, making your conversations more precise and meaningful.

Here are the possessive pronouns in North Azerbaijani:

Person North Azerbaijani Pronunciation English
1st Person Singular mənim /mænɪm/ my
2nd Person Singular sənin /sænɪn/ your
3rd Person Singular onun /onʊn/ his/her/its
1st Person Plural bizim /bɪzɪm/ our
2nd Person Plural sizin /sɪzɪn/ your (plural/formal)
3rd Person Plural onların /onlɑrɪn/ their

As you can see, each pronoun corresponds to a specific person or group. These are used to express ownership in various contexts.

How to Use Possessive Pronouns in Sentences[edit | edit source]

Using possessive pronouns in sentences is straightforward. Here are some important points to remember:

  • The possessive pronoun typically precedes the noun.
  • The noun itself does not change; only the possessive pronoun reflects ownership.

Now, let’s look at some examples to illustrate how to use these pronouns effectively.

North Azerbaijani Pronunciation English
mənim kitabım /mænɪm kɪtɑbɪm/ my book
sənin evin /sænɪn evɪn/ your house
onun qələmi /onʊn qælæmɪ/ his/her pencil

sizin avtomobiliniz /sɪzɪn avtomoˈbɪlɪnɪz/ your (plural) car
onların dostları /onlɑrɪn dɔstˈlɑrɪ/ their friends

These examples show how to connect possessive pronouns with nouns to express who owns what.

Expressing Possession with Nouns[edit | edit source]

In addition to using possessive pronouns, you can also express possession by using nouns directly. This construction is often used in North Azerbaijani.

For example, instead of saying “my book,” you can say “the book of me,” which in North Azerbaijani is “mənim kitabım.” This is a more descriptive way of expressing possession.

Here are some examples:

North Azerbaijani Pronunciation English
mənin dostum /mænɪn dɔstʊm/ my friend
sənin qızın /sænɪn qɪzɪn/ your daughter
onun atası /onʊn ɑtɑsɪ/ his/her father

sizin kitablarınız /sɪzɪn kɪtɑblɑrɪnɪz/ your (plural) books
