The possessive pronouns are:
Mine, ours, yours, his, hers, its, theirs.
They are used in sentences such as:
My cooking’s probably even worse than yours.
Michael Joseph says there has been no breach: ‘The Sunday Times’s promotion is theirs, not ours’.
These are true pronouns because they stand alone, without being attached to a noun, by contrast with my, our, etc. which always come before a noun and are better referred to as Possessive Determiners.
