Understanding Possessive Adjectives:


Possessive adjectives show ownership. Here’s a quick guide:

- my – for "I"
- your – for "you"
- our – for "we"
- their – for "they"
- her – for "she"
- his – for "he" or "a male"
- its – for animals or things (no apostrophe)

---

Now, let's go through each sentence:

---

1. They have a car. This is _____ car.
→ "They" = plural, so use their
their

2. The cat has a fish. This is _____ fish.
→ The cat is an animal; we use its for animals (not "her" unless specified)
its

3. Ali has many books. These are _____ books.
→ Ali is a person (likely male name), but even if not, we use his for people when gender isn't clear or unspecified (unless it's known to be female). But since no gender is specified, and "Ali" is often used as a male name, his is acceptable. However, if gender-neutral is preferred, his is still standard in English for singular unknown gender.
his

4. We have a dog. This is _____ dog.
→ "We" = plural, so use our
our

5. The dog has a tail. That is _____ tail.
→ Dog is an animal → use its
its

6. The monster has wings. Those are _____ wings.
→ Monster is a thing/creature → use its
its

7. You have a Batman picture. This is _____ Batman picture.
→ "You" → use your
your

8. The dogs have a bag of bones. These are _____ bones.
→ "The dogs" = plural → use their
their

9. I have a teddy bear. This is _____ teddy bear.
→ "I" → use my
my

10. The cat has a blanket. This is _____ blanket.
→ Cat is an animal → use its
its

---

Final Answers:



1. their
2. its
3. his
4. our
5. its
6. its
7. your
8. their
9. my
10. its

📝 Notes:


- Use its (no apostrophe) for animals and objects — not "it's", which means "it is".
- For people, use his/her based on gender. Since Ali's gender isn't specified, his is commonly used as a default in such exercises.
- Their is used for plural subjects ("they", "the dogs", etc.)
