In Baltimore, Maryland when you have a gun in your possession you can get in trouble, unless it is registered to you. If you have a gun in your possession and it is not yours, you can be charged, fined, and even given jail time. Depending on if you have a background or not, how lenient they would be with you.
No, there is no such law regarding the purchase of an automobile. Once you buy a car, it is yours and you cannot return it.
To claim ownership or possession of something, you would say that it is "yours."
Your and my are both possessive pronouns.
yes, because if you had it for a year and that person never cared to look for it that shows they don't care about it.
That depends on the law of your state.
A possessive pronoun is a pronoun that indicates ownership or possession. Examples include "mine," "yours," "his," "hers," "ours," and "theirs." Possessive pronouns do not require an additional noun to show ownership because they already indicate possession.
What card? Was it stolen? If it was stolen and you had it in your possession, and you knew it was someone else's and not yours - whether you used it or not you are guilty of being in "possession of stolen property."
In American Sign Language (ASL), you can sign "I am yours" by signing "I" then pointing with both index fingers towards yourself and the person you are speaking to. This gesture signifies ownership or possession in ASL.
Good question. The use of the apostrophe causes much confusion and the word "it" adds some complexity. To answer your question first, "it's" is simply an abbreviation of "it is" while "its" implies possession. Example (brackets used for explanation): "It's (it is) a fact that a kangaroo puts its (possession) young in a pouch" "It" and other pronouns however are exceptions to a general grammatical rule regarding using an "s" to express possession. The general grammar rule would be for singular possession, use 's. Example (brackets used for explanation): "A kangaroo's (singular possession) pouch is for the protection of its (possession special case for it) young" For multiple (plural) possession, you use s' to avoid confusion Example (brackets used for explanation): "Kangaroos' (plural/multiple possession) pouches (plural/multiple) protect their (plural/multiple) young" It's tricky but as mentioned, but possessive pronouns are the only exception to the rule about using an apostrophe to indicate possession. It's (it is) the reason we write "hers", "yours", "theirs", etc. instead of "her's", "yours' ", and so on.
no. to show possession you just say "that's yours" or something like that :) Ok thank you! But if I am saying for example (That is your tool kit, isn't it?) The word (your) doesn't get an aposthrope?
The moment you sign the contract, have financing, and they hand you the keys. The car is now yours.
