The pronoun 'your' is a possessive adjective, when placed before a noun, describes the noun as belonging to you (singular or plural). Examples:
singular: Jane, I brought your lunch.
plural: Jane and Jack, your lunch is on the table.
plural: Class, it's time for your lunch now.
singular: Excuse me miss, you left your book on the counter.
plural: Your room looks very nice, girls.
The corresponding possessive pronoun is 'yours', which takes the place of a noun that belongs to you (singular or plural). Examples:
singular: I brought your lunch Jane. The tuna sandwich is yours.
plural: Jane and Jack, the sandwiches on the table are yours.
