	Possessive pronoun - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A possessive pronoun is a part of speech that attributes ownership to someone or something.
		Some languages have neither possessive pronouns nor possessive adjectives, and express possession by declining the personal pronouns in the genitive or possessive case, or by using possessive suffixes.
		It should be noted however that precisely because a possessive adjective constitutes a determiner phrase, and not a noun phrase, strictly speaking its lexical category is determiner, not pronoun.

		A possessive adjective, also called a possessive determiner or possessive article, is a part of speech that modifies a noun by attributing ownership to someone or something (with some exceptions noted below).
		It is grammatically a determiner rather than an adjective because it cannot co-occur with another determiner such as an article or a demonstrative, but it can co-occur with adjectives.
		The possessive adjective its is one of the most commonly misspelled words in the English language; many people are confused by its homonym it's (which can be an abbreviation for either "it is" or "it has"), due to the fact that -'s is a possessive suffix on nouns.

		Names display all the linguistic features also characteristic of the appellative part of the lexicon, but they contain even more: they represent a veritable treasure trove of linguistic archaisms, of lexemes no longer found independently and referring to past stages of the language.

		Names, however, have their own principles of word-formation, which are less restrictive than elsewhere in morphology: pet forms or hypocoristics permit the shortening of compound names, omitting - partly or entirely - either the first or the second element, e.g.

		Since in English they cannot co-occur with an indefinite article, phrases like "a book of mine" or "one of my books" must be used instead of incorrect "a my book."

		We can, of course, stipulate that there is only one God (that is, the specific God we are talking about); but the fact remains that in the two sentences just cited—and in all others like them—the natural tendency and unselfconscious habit is to substitute a possessive pronoun for Joan’s or God’s.
		Hence it is unlikely that this practice will ever enter into the habitual linguistic habits of the society: it does not facilitate good communication; on the contrary, it impedes it.
		In English reflexive pronouns are made by adding the suffix -self (pl. -selves) to the determinative possessive forms of the first and second person and to the objective form of the third person.
