A possessive sentence can use a possessive noun or pronoun.

A possessive noun is a noun that indicates that something in the sentence belongs to that noun. The possessive noun is indicated by an apostrophe s ('s) or just an apostrophe (') at the end of the noun.

Example sentence: The dog's name is Bingo.

There are two forms of possessive pronouns:

A possessive pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun that belongs to someone or something.

The possessive pronouns are: mine, yours, his, hers, its, ours, theirs.

Example: The house on the corner is mine.

A possessive adjective is a word placed before a noun to describe that noun as belonging to someone or something.

The possessive adjectives are: my, your, his, her, their, its.

Example sentence: My house is on the corner.

Or, the noun 'sentence' as a possessive noun:

The sentence's length made the prisoner regret his poor choices.
