The cases of pronouns are:
- subjective, functions as the subject of a sentence or a clause;
- objective, functions as the object of a verb or a preposition;
- possessive, indicates something in the sentence belongs to the noun.
There are two types of pronouns that show possession:
Possessive pronouns take the place of a noun that belongs to someone or something.
They are: mine, yours, his, hers, its, ours, theirs.
Possessive adjectives describe a noun as belonging to someone or something. A possessive adjective is placed just before the noun it describes.
They are: my, your, his, her, their, its.
EXAMPLES
- When George got to 19th Street, he got off the train. (the personal pronoun 'he' functions as the subject of the second part of the sentence)
- To whom should I give my completed application? (the interrogative pronoun 'whom' is the object of the preposition 'to')
- Of course I think that the best entry is mine. (the possessive pronoun 'mine' takes the place of the noun 'entry')
- My entry is the winner! (the possessive adjective 'my' describes the noun 'entry')
