Answer 2

Possessives in English are used to express ownership or possession. There are two forms of possessives: possessive adjectives and possessive pronouns.

Possessive Adjectives go before nouns and modify them. They show who the noun belongs to. Examples of possessive adjectives are "my," "your," "his," "her," "its," "our," and "their."

Possessive Pronouns replace the noun and show ownership. They do not go before nouns. Examples of possessive pronouns are "mine," "yours," "his," "hers," "its," "ours," and "theirs."

Now, let's fill in the blanks with the appropriate possessive adjectives or possessive pronouns:

1) This is your bag, but that one over there is hers. 2) Our score was better than theirs. 3) Her holiday starts the week after. 4) Can we have their suggestion first and then we'll hear yours. 5) I didn't bother with his opinion because it was irrelevant. 6) Their flight was delayed, but hers took off on time. 7) I wish I had your talent. 8) Unfortunately, his car broke down, so we had to take a taxi. 9) If you're a friend of ours, you're welcome to join us. 10) We'll leave our house after dinner, so we should be at theirs by 8 pm.

Please note that possessive case with "'s" or "s'" is used for people or animals, not inanimate objects. However, the phrase "the windows of a house" can use the possessive case with "of" to indicate ownership.
