I'm sorry, but we do not have a regular Spanish tutor now.

My two years of high school Spanish were taken about 65 years ago. I remember very little of it.

Please!! I really need help and I don't have much time, I have watched videos, read the text, asked my teacher for help, and researched it. This is my last hope! :(((

what is it

Sure! Let's start by understanding what possessive adjectives are. Possessive adjectives are words that indicate ownership or possession in a sentence. In Spanish, possessive adjectives are used to show to whom something belongs.

Here are the possessive adjectives in Spanish:

- Singular: mi (my), tu (your informal), su (his/her/your formal)
- Plural: nuestros/nuestras (our), vuestros/vuestras (your informal plural), sus (their/your formal plural)

Now, let's compare the differences between English and Spanish possessive adjectives.

1. Agreement: In Spanish, possessive adjectives agree in gender (masculine/feminine) and number (singular/plural) with the noun they modify. This means that possessive adjectives have different forms depending on the gender and number of the word they are referring to, whereas in English, possessive adjectives remain the same.

2. Placement: In Spanish, possessive adjectives are usually placed before the noun they modify, while in English, possessive adjectives are placed after the noun or connected using an apostrophe ('s).

Now, let's look at some examples to better understand the usage:

1. Mi hermano es alto. (My brother is tall.)
2. Tus amigos son simpáticos. (Your friends are friendly - informal.)
3. Su casa es grande. (His/her/your formal house is big.)
4. Nuestro perro es juguetón. (Our dog is playful.)
5. Vuestras bicicletas son nuevas. (Your bikes are new - informal plural.)
6. Sus libros están en la mesa. (Their/your formal plural books are on the table.)

To understand possessive adjectives fully, it's important to practice using them in context and also understanding the gender and number agreement with the nouns they modify.
