A singular noun is a word for one person, place, or thing (a neighbor, a town, a book).

A possessive noun is a word that show's something in the sentence belongs to that noun.

A noun is made possessive by adding an apostrophe -s to the end of the word (or just an apostrophe to the end of plural nouns already ending in -s). Examples of singular possessive nouns:

  • a neighbor's house
  • the town's mayor
  • the book's cover

A pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun in a sentence.

A singular pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun for one person or thing.

A singular possessive pronoun is a pronoun that takes the place of a noun that belongs to one person or thing. Examples of singular possessive pronouns:

  • This house is his.
  • Hers is the house on the corner.
  • The house with the green shutters is mine.
