Welcome to this tutorial.

00:02.550 --> 00:07.040
Today we're going to talk about possessive pronouns.

00:07.050 --> 00:09.710
Let's get started.

00:09.720 --> 00:17.550
Remember that a pronoun is a word that replaces a noun in a sentence making the subject a person or

00:17.580 --> 00:19.050
a thing.

00:19.080 --> 00:25.280
Note that Possessive Pronouns are pronouns that demonstrate ownership.

00:25.280 --> 00:25.990
Have a look.

00:26.010 --> 00:28.070
The example over here.

00:28.320 --> 00:31.420
This car is mine.

00:31.450 --> 00:38.950
Note that the word mine in this sentence is a possessive pronoun and it tells us who the car belongs

00:38.950 --> 00:49.540
to now Possessive Pronouns are used instead of possessive adjectives and nouns have a look at the table

00:49.570 --> 01:11.280
below no subject I object mi possessive adjective my possessive pronoun mine you you your yours he him

01:11.790 --> 01:38.680
his his she her her hers it it it's it's ri us our ours see them they're theirs.

01:38.820 --> 01:47.070
Note that there is no apostrophe in possessive pronouns and Nyngan s have a look at the example below

01:48.380 --> 01:58.160
I don't remember buying these teens I think they are yours and remember the possessive pronouns stand

01:58.400 --> 02:06.110
on their own they are not used with another noun have a look at the example over here.

02:06.110 --> 02:08.650
This is her cat.

02:08.690 --> 02:15.740
Note that her is a possessive adjective and it can be used with a noun.

02:15.830 --> 02:20.780
This in her cat and in the sentence.

02:20.900 --> 02:23.490
This cat is hers.

02:23.510 --> 02:32.930
Note the deep recessive pronoun in this sentence hers standing on its own.

02:33.070 --> 02:37.070
Now we can use possessive pronouns after off.

02:37.070 --> 02:37.800
Have a look.

02:37.810 --> 02:43.630
These sentences over here Jake is one of my friends.

02:43.630 --> 02:49.840
Note that we can also say Jake is a friend of mine.

02:49.840 --> 02:59.480
Note that the possessive pronoun in the second sentence comes after off and remember that possessive

02:59.480 --> 03:05.230
pronouns simplify constructions that show possession of a noun.

03:05.390 --> 03:08.560
Have a look at the examples over here.

03:08.660 --> 03:12.640
This is your room and that is our room.

03:14.120 --> 03:17.290
The simplified version of the sentence would be.

03:17.460 --> 03:21.760
This is your room and that is ours.
