The possessive form of a noun shows that something in the sentence belongs to that noun, formed by adding an apostrophe 's' to the end of the noun. For example:

  • The door of the school is the school's door.
  • The bottle for the baby is the baby's bottle.
  • The bike that belongs to John is John's bike.
  • The note from the boss is the boss's note.

There are two types of possessive forms for pronouns, the possessive pronouns and the possessive adjectives.

Possessive pronouns take the place of a noun that belongs to someone or something. The possessive pronouns are mine, yours, his, hers, its ours, theirs.

For example: John lost his math book, this book must be his.

Possessive adjectives describe a noun that belongs to someone or something. The possessive adjectives are my, our, your, his, her, its.

For example: John lost his math book. This must be hisbook.
