A strategy for identifying whether to use whose is . . .
To determine whether to use "whose," you can follow these steps:
1. Identify the possessive relationship: "Whose" indicates ownership or possession. Ask yourself who or what possesses something.
Example: Whose book is this?
2. Determine the noun that the possessive pronoun refers to: Identify the noun that the "whose" pronoun is modifying or describing.
Example: Whose car is parked outside?
3. Use "whose" before the noun to indicate possession.
Example: Whose pen did you borrow?
In summary, "whose" is used to show possession. It refers to the person or thing that owns or possesses something, and it is placed before the noun being possessed.
