Is mama a possessive

Answer 1

No, the noun 'mama' is a singular, common, concrete noun; a synonym for 'mother'; a word for a person.

A possessive noun is a word that indicates that something in the sentence belongs to that noun.

A possessive noun is formed by adding an apostrophe s ('s) to the end of the noun, or just an apostrophe (') to the end of a plural noun that already ends with an s.

The possessive form of the noun mama is mama's.

An example use of the possessive noun is:

• The cake is for mama's birthday. (the birthday of mama)

Answer 2

Possessive means that the word means "belonging to _____." Mama does not mean "belonging to" - it means the same thing as mother, so it is not a possessive. Mama's would be "belonging to Mama."

Answer 3

No, "mama" is not a possessive term. It is a familiar term used to refer to one's mother. Possessive forms typically use an apostrophe + "s" to show ownership or relationship, such as "mama's house."
