Possessive pronouns show ownership or possession. They are words like:
* mine
* yours
* his
* hers
* its
* ours
* theirs
Example:
* "That car is mine." (Mine shows that the speaker owns the car.)
Important note: There's no such thing as a "possessive noun." A noun is a word that names a person, place, thing, or idea. A noun can be made possessive using an apostrophe (e.g., "the dog's bone") but the noun itself is not a "possessive noun."
