Possessive Pronouns
This book is mine.
That book is yours.
Those toys are ours.
This cat is his.
Those oranges are hers.
That car is theirs.
The words ‘mine’, ‘yours’, ‘ours’, theirs’, ‘his’, and ‘hers’ show that something belongs to somebody (possession). There are no nouns after these words. These are called possessive pronouns.
