Advanced Description
This is is an experimental feature. Please report any issues.In Spanish, possessive pronouns are used to show who owns or possesses something. They agree in gender and number with the noun they refer to. For example, if you want to say "his car", you would use the pronoun "suyo". If the noun is masculine singular, you would use "suyo"; if it's feminine singular, you would use "suya"; if it's masculine plural, you would use "suyos"; and if it's feminine plural, you would use "suyas".
The pronoun "suyo" can also be used as a formal way to address someone when talking about their possessions. For example, instead of saying "Is this your book?", you could say "Is this book yours?" using the pronoun "suyo".
It's important to note that the possessive pronoun "suyo" can also function as a possessive adjective when placed before a noun. In this case, it agrees in gender and number with the noun it modifies. For example, if you want to say "his car", you would use the possessive adjective form: "su carro".
