The word him is a pronoun, not a noun; it is not a possessive pronoun. Him is a the objective pronoun that takes the place of a noun for a male as the object of a sentence or phrase. Example:

  • The book belongs to him.

His is a possessive pronoun and a possessive adjective.

The possessive pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun that belongs to a male. Example:

  • This book is his.

The possessive adjective describes a noun as belonging to a male; the possessive adjective is place just before the noun it describes. Example:

  • This is his book.
