 ADJECTIVES DESCRIBE A NOUN
 EG, SHE IS A DETERMINED YOUNG WOMAN
WHAT ARE POSSESSIVE ADJECTIVES?
• Possessive adjectives show ownership by someone or
something
• Eg, she loves her dog to death
• THERE ARE TWO FORMS OF ADJECTIVES
• Singular or plural
• The singular form show ownership by one person or by one
thing
• The dog licks its tail
EXAMPLES OF SINGULAR ADJECTIVES
• Her house

HE IS AT THE BEACH WITH HIS DOG
THE PLURAL FORM HOWEVER IS DIFFERENT

• As the singular forms show ownership by one person, the
plural form shows ownership by two or more people or things.
• See the example below;
• Theirs, ours etc
• Their house is adorned by pictures and souvenirs
• Our dog bit the neighbour
MORE EXAMPLES ON
PLURAL
They are reading THEIR books.

and these are
ITS red buses.
