Yes, the word "we" in parentheses is a possessive pronoun in this sentence.
To determine whether the word in parentheses is a possessive pronoun, we need to understand what possessive pronouns are. Possessive pronouns are used to show ownership or possession. Examples of possessive pronouns are "mine," "yours," "his," "hers," "theirs," and "ours."
In the given sentence, the word in parentheses is "we." "We" is a pronoun indicating the first-person plural form. However, "we" is not a possessive pronoun. It is a subject pronoun used to represent the subject of the sentence.
