What is a "possessive adjective"?
A possessive adjective is an adjective that shows ownership or possession, indicating to whom or what something belongs. Possessive adjectives are used before a noun to modify it and provide information about ownership. The main possessive adjectives in English are "my," "your," "his," "her," "its," "our," and "their." For example, in the phrase "my book," the adjective "my" indicates that the book belongs to the speaker. Similarly, in "their house," the adjective "their" shows that the house belongs to a group of people. Understanding possessive adjectives is important for expressing relationships of ownership clearly in language.
