Hi guys! Today I did read about Pronouns and Possessives. What I learned was: When we talk with someone we use my, your (my bag, my computer, my cat, my pen and etc). These are possessive adjectives. When is in singular or plural it's the same: their magazines, our houses.
The possessive pronouns is always at the end of the sentences but it's not a rule. For example: The house is ours, Those books are mine, Where are yours?
The possessive adjective are used when we say about ours thing as: My family is happy, The my blouse is pink, The his cat is handsome, the key is our.
