A singular possessive is a noun or a pronoun for one person or thing that shows that something belongs to that person or thing.

Possessive nouns are shown by adding an apostrophe s to the end of the word; examples:

  • Jake's wagon was stored in the neighbor's garage.

Possession for pronouns is shown by use of specific words.

There are two types of pronouns showing possession:

Possessive pronouns take the place of a noun that belongs to someone or something.

They are: mine, yours, his, hers, its, ours, theirs.

  • The house on the corner is mine.

Possessive adjectives describe a noun as belonging to someone or something. A possessive adjective is placed just before the noun it describes.

They are: my, your, his, her, their, its.

  • My house is on the corner.

A singular possessive is a grammatical form used to show that one person or thing possesses or owns something. It involves adding an apostrophe and the letter "s" ('s) to the noun that is doing the possessing. For example, "the cat's tail" shows that the tail belongs to the cat.
