3. Possessive adjectives
Possessive adjectives are words that indicate possession.
(Possessive adjectives adalah kata yang menunjukan kepemilikan.)

Possessive adjectives are used with nouns.

(Possessive adjectives selalu menggunakan nouns.)

Example (Contoh) :

sekali)
You have three cats. Your Cats need a lot of attention. (kamu mempunyai 3 kucing, kucingmu
membutuhkan banyak Perhatian)

sekolahnya tidak jauh)
 4. Possessive pronouns

(Possessive pronouns juga menunjukan kepemilikan namun tidak diikuti oleh nouns.)

This is my book. This book is mine. (ini adalah buku ku, buku ini adalah punyaku)
These are your dog. These dogs are yours. (ini adalah kucing-kucingmu, kucing-kucing ini adalah
milikmu)
His school is far from here. His is far. (sekolahnya dia jauh dari sini, dia jauh)

Differences between Possessive Adjective and Possessive Pronouns

In order to determine when use possessive adjectives or possessive pronouns, we can look into
the nouns itself.
(Untuk menentukan kapan menggunakan possessive adjective atau possessive pronouns, kita dapat
melihat ke nouns itu sendiri.)

If nouns in front before the possessive : use possessive pronouns!

(Jika noun berada di depan sebelum kepemilikan : gunakan possessive pronouns!)
If nouns in behind after the possessive: use possessive adjectives!
(Jika noun di belakang setelah kepemilikan : gunakan possessive adjectives!)
Now I will try to explain it, look carefully into the word “book”.
(Sekarang saya akan mencoba jelaskan, perhatikan baik-baik kata “buku”.)

This book is mine.

This is my book.

First sentence the book in front, so we use “mine”.

(Kalimat pertama buku berada di depan, jadi kita gunakan “mine”.)

Second sentence the book in behind, so we use “my”.

(Kalimat kedua buku berada di belakang, jadi kita gunakan “my”.)
