Wichtige Regeln
Possessivpronomen stehen vor einem Substantiv:
✅ my book, her smile, their house
❌ book my, smile her, house their
Nicht mit Pronomen verwechseln:
- my = Adjektiv vor Substantiv → This is my car.
- mine = Pronomen allein → This car is mine.
It's vs. Its:
- its (Possessivpronomen) = gehört ihm/ihr → The dog wagged its tail.
- it's (Kurzform) = it is → It's raining today.
Häufige Fehler
| Falsch | Richtig | Warum |

| The dog hurt it's leg. | The dog hurt its leg. | "its" = gehört ihm/ihr |
| Me sister is tall. | My sister is tall. | Adjektiv, kein Pronomen |
