Possessive adjectives and pronouns

DIFFERENCE between POSSESSIVE ADJECTIVES  and POSSESSIVE PRONOUNS. Possessive Adjectives 👉Possessive adjectives are used to indicate possession or ownership of something by someone.

Our:  We finished our homework. Your:  Your friends are waiting. Their:  They brought their own food.

Ours:  The house is ours. Yours:  Is this bike yours? Theirs:  The toys a...
