Possessive Adjectives (my, your, his…) en inglés: Explicación + Ejercicios

Possessive Adjectives

Los possessive adjectives (adjetivos posesivos) se usan para indicar de quién es algo.

Siempre van delante del sustantivo.

Ejemplos:

  • This is my book. → Este es mi libro
  • She loves her dog. → Ella quiere a su perro
  • We live in our house. → Vivimos en nuestra casa
  • They have their car. → Ellos tienen su coche

  • her (de ella)

Ejemplos:

  • He has his book. → Él tiene su libro
  • She has her book. → Ella tiene su libro

⚠️ Error común

❌ She loves his dog (si es de ella)
✔️ She loves her dog
