Personal Pronouns and Possessive Adjectives

الضمائر الشخصية وصفات الملكية

Learning objective · هدف الدرس

I can replace nouns with pronouns and show ownership with my, your, his, her …

أستطيع استبدال الأسماء بالضمائر والتعبير عن الملكية بـ my, your, his, her …

WHAT? · What is the grammar point?

ما هي القاعدة؟

Pronouns replace nouns so we don't repeat them: Ahmed → he. Possessive adjectives show who something belongs to and come before a noun: my book, their house.

الضمير يحل محل الاسم حتى لا نكرره: بدلًا من Maryam is kind. Maryam helps me نقول She helps me. أما صفات الملكية فتعني «ـي، ـك، ـه، ـها» في العربية، وتأتي قبل الاسم: my book (كتابي). انتبه: his للمذكر وher للمؤنث حسب صاحب الشيء، لا حسب الشيء نفسه.

RULE

القاعدة

I → my · you → your · he → his · she → her
it → its · we → our · they → their
Possessive + noun: my bag, their car
