Possessive Adjectives - Adjetivos Posesivos

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.
Sin embargo, debes prestar atención cuando se refieren a la tercera persona, ya que en
castellano se usa "su" en todos los casos, mientras que en inglés varían según la
persona.
Nota además que "your" puede referirse al singular (tu) o al plural (vuestro).
 I like my job.
 Is your brother coming?
 His car is new.
 Her house is big.
 Our sons live here.
 Your house is big.

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 is under the table. Its name is Bob.

Los possessive adjectives se utilizan principalmente para

indicar que algo pertenece o que forma parte de alguien.
También los usamos para expresar relaciones de parentesco, amistad o trabajo
(personas o animales) y para hablar de las partes del cuerpo humano.
