Pronoun sebagai Possessive Adjective diletakkan didepan Noun (Kata Benda) untuk menunjukkan kepemilikan. Apabila kita ingin menunjukkan milik tidak menggunakan kata ganti (pronoun) tetapi menggunakan nama atau kata benda, maka digunakan apostrophe (tanda ‘) ditambah s dibelakang nama atau kata benda tersebut.
Tetapi jika benda tersebut plural dengan menambahkan “s” cukup ditambah dengan tanda apostrophe (tanda ‘) saja.
Example:
Tetapi jika benda tersebut plural dengan menambahkan “s” cukup ditambah dengan tanda apostrophe (tanda ‘) saja.
Example:
Toni’s book (buku Toni)
Shinta’s book
My parents’ house
The children’s mother
