How is my a pronoun and an adjective?

You're right! "My" can function as both a pronoun and an adjective, depending on its role in a sentence.

Here's the breakdown:

Pronoun:

* When "my" stands alone and represents a noun, it's a pronoun. For example:

* "This is my book." (Here, "my" replaces the actual owner's name.)

Adjective:

* When "my" modifies a noun, describing it, it acts as an adjective. For example:

* "I saw my friend at the park." (Here, "my" tells us which friend we're talking about.)
