2) Possessive pronouns do exactly what it seems like they should do. They are the pronouns that help us show possession or ownership in a sentence. There are two types of possessive pronouns:

Examples:

  • The strong (or absolute) possessive pronouns are mine, yours, his, hers, its, ours, yours, and theirs. They refer back to a noun or noun phrase already used, replacing it to avoid repetition: "I said that phone was mine."

  • The weak possessive pronouns (also called possessive adjectives) are my, your, his, her, its, our, your, and their. They function as determiners in front of a noun to describe who something belongs to: "I said that's my phone."

3) When reflexive pronouns are used to emphasize the noun, they are called emphatic pronouns.

For example:

  • For example: She herself informed me.
  • For example: She herself informed me. They themselves saw it.
