2. Using Possessive Pronouns and Adjectives (Usando Pronombres posesivos y adjetivos)

A possessive pronoun is used instead of a noun:

Julie's car is red. Mine is blue.

Un Pronombre posesivo es usado en lugar de un sujeto

Julie's Car is Red. Mine is Blue.

A possessive adjective is usually used to describe a noun, and it comes before it, like other adjectives:

My car is bigger than her car.


Un Adjetivo Posesivo es usado usualmente para describir un sujeto, y viene antes del mismo, como otros adjetivos:

My car is bigger than her car.

Remember:

There are no apostrophes in possessive pronouns and adjectives.

The dog wagged its tail.

Recuerda:

No hay apostrofes en los pronombres posesivos ni adjetivos

The Dog wagged its tail

“It's” is not a possessive pronoun or adjective — it means “it is”:

It's not my dog.

"It's" no es un pronombre posesivo ni un adjetivo - Quiere decir "It Is"

It's not My Dog
