A possessive form of a noun is one that indicates ownership, possession, origin, or purpose. The possessive is normally formed by adding apostrophe S to the noun, but for plurals ending in S, the apostrophe alone is added. Irregular plurals that do not end in S form the apostrophe S version as usual.
Examples:
dog: The dog's bone was found in the yard.
dogs: The dogs' collars were accidentally switched.
child: The child's toy was broken.
children: The children's jackets were kept in the closet.
There are two types of pronouns that show possession:
Possessive pronounstake the place of a noun that belongs to someone or something.
They are: mine, yours, his, hers, its*, ours, theirs.

Possessive adjectivesdescribe 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*.
Example: How is yourchicken? Mytuna is delicious.
