2. Complete the sentences. Use subject pronouns and

possessive adjectives .

Now study these rules:

Personal subject pronouns
go before the verb:
I am at home.
You like music.
He wants to buy a new car.
However, we place the
auxiliary verb before subject

pronouns in questions:

Can you help me?

Has she got the book?

Does he write very often?

Personal object pronouns come after verbs and
prepositions:

She loves me.

We send you an e-mail every day.

We go with him.
A possessive adjective is followed by a noun and a
possessive pronoun replaces it.

This is my van. It is mine.

Your lorry is very big, but theirs is the biggest one.

His house is enormous, but ours is very small.
