Possessive Adjective and  Possessive Pronoun

Possessive pronouns and adjectives are two different ways to show possession in English.

  • Possessive adjectives go before the noun    
 Possessive Adjective        +        Noun


Examples:
My dog is big.
Her cat is brown
Their sister works downtown
This is my car.
Is that your pen?

  • Possessive pronouns go after the noun.

Noun        +        Possessive Pronoun

Examples:
The dog is mine.
The brown cat is hers.
The car is ours.
The car is mine
Is that pen yours?
