Possesive Adjectives and Possesive Pronouns Adjetivos Posesivos (Possesive Adjectives )

Se utilizan para indicar a quién pertenece el sujeto u objeto de la oración. Van seguidos de un sustantivo (o una cláusula nominal).

 

Possessive Adjectives

my mi / mis

your tu / tus

his su / sus

her su / sus

its su / sus

our nuestro/a/os/as

your vuestro/a/os/as

their su / sus

Como se puede observar, son muchos menos que en español, ya que no se diferencian en singular o plural. Por ejemplo:

my car mi auto my cars mis autos

Sin embargo, debe prestar atención cuando se refiere a la tercera persona, ya que en castellano se usa "su" en todos los casos, mientras que en inglés varían según la persona.Note además que "your" puede referirse al singular (tu) o al plural (tus de ustedes).my houseyour househis househer house

its houseour houseyour housetheir house

Si se está hablando de una persona y se describe su casa, se usaría his o her, según el sexo de dicha persona.

John lives in New York. His house is very big. Susan lives in New York. Her house is very big.

Pero si se habla de un animal se debe utilizar its. The cat lives in New York. Its name is Bob.

Para preguntar de quién es algo, se usa Whose. Siempre va seguido de un sustantivo y luego la forma interrogativa del verbo.

Whose De quién

Whose book is this?¿De quién es este libro?

It's Paul's book. / It's his book. / It's his.Es el libro de Paul. / Es su libro. / Es suyo.

Note que en este caso se usa el adjetivo posesivo seguido del sustantivo, o bien directamente el pronombre posesivo, como se explica a continuación

Possesive PronounsSe utilizan para indicar a quién pertenece algo. Como son pronombres, reemplazan al sustantivo al que se está haciendo referencia.
