Learn the difference between possessive pronouns vs possessive adjectives in this English grammar lesson for beginners. We use possessives to express ownership, possession or define relationships. The possessive adjectives (or determiners) are my, your, his, her, its, our, and their. The possessive pronouns are mine, yours, his, hers, its, ours, and theirs.

We use possessive adjectives before nouns.
Example: That is my jacket. This is your hat. Where is her scarf?

We use possessive pronouns in place of nouns.
This jacket is yours. That one is mine. Is this scarf hers?

At the end of this lesson, we will compare both types of possessives. There will be an eight question quiz to help you test your knowledge!
