Question

This book is mine. std 10 cbse

Answer 1

Answer:

possessive pronouns are used in English to avoid repeating information that is already clear. In general it makes the sentence less confusing because the same information is not being repeated.

This book is my book, not your book. (Sounds repetitive)

This book is mine, not yours. (Mine and yours are possessive pronouns)

In the sentence, mine is a possessive pronoun that replaces my book.

In the sentence, yours is a possessive pronoun that replaces your book.
