The verb be; possessive adjectives

¡Hi!

What is a possessive adjective?

A possessive adjective is an adjective that modifies a noun by identifying who has ownership or possession of it. For example, in the sentence Andrew lost his keys the word his is a possessive adjective that indicates the keys belong to Andrew.

The most commonly used possessive adjectives are my, your, his, her, its, our, their, and whose. In order, these adjectives correspond to the pronouns I, you, he, she, it, we, they, and who. As their name suggests, possessive adjectives are often used to express possession or ownership

Subject pronouns; yes / no questions with be

wow

Subject pronouns are the words used to replace the subject of a sentence. The subject pronouns are "I," "you," "he," "she," "it," "we," and "they." Yes/no questions with the verb "be" are questions that can be answered with either "yes" or "no." To form a yes/no question with "be," you need to invert the order of the subject pronoun and the verb "be." For example: Statement: She is a doctor. Question: Is she a doctor?

Here are some more examples: Statement: They are at the park. Question: Are they at the park? Statement: He is tall. Question: Is he tall? Statement: We are happy. Question: Are we happy?
