Possessive Pronouns
  • Unidad 2 Etapa 1

2
Possessive Pronouns
  • Lets look at the possessive adjectives first.
  • There are two sets.
  • The first set goes before the noun.

3
Possessive Adjectives (before the noun)
Since they are adjectives, they agree in number
and gender (only with our). The change is with
the nouns they modify, not with the person(s) who
own or possess the object.
  • mi / mis my
  • tu / tus your
  • su / sus his, her, your
  • nuestro, -a our
  • nuestros, -as
  • vuestro, -a your
  • vuestros, -as
  • su / sus their
  • your

  • nuestro carro
  • nuestros carros
  • nuestra casa

5
Possessive Adjectives (after the noun)
Since they are adjectives, they agree in number
and gender. The change is with the nouns they
modify, not with the person(s) who own or possess
the object.

  • (his, her car / his, her carros)
  • la casa suya, las casas suyas

7
Possessive Pronouns
  • To form the possessive pronouns, use the long
    form of possessive adjectives proceded by the
    definite article.
  • Both the article and the possessive must agree in
    number and gender with the noun they replace.

8
Possessive pronouns
Possessive pronouns are the words which replace
nouns modified by possessive adjectives. In
Spanish there are different forms of possessive
pronouns depending on whether the noun is
masculine or feminine, singular or plural.
  • English possessive pronounMasc. Singular
    Fem. singular Masc. plural Fem. plural
