Class Name Well Ordered Language 3 A/B
This week’s focus: WOL 3A Chapter 4
In preparation for Schole support class: This lesson is about personal pronouns. Absolute possessive pronouns to be exact. They are mine, yours, his, hers, its, ours, yours, theirs. They are different because they act as both the possessor, and the thing possessed. An absolute possessive pronoun stands apart from the noun it modifies.
There are three pronoun cases: Subjective, Objective, and Possessive.
A subject pronoun is doing the action in a sentence. It is what the sentence is about. “I knew.”
An object pronoun is a ponoun that can receive the action in the sentence as a direct object. “Aslan knew you.”
A possessive pronoun functions as an adjective “her nose” as it behaves like a possessive noun in that it shows ownership and modifies other nouns.
Absolute possessive pronouns are used in sentences just as nouns are used – as subjects, predicate nominatives, direct objects, or objects of the preposition. So that is how you would analyze and diagram them.
