Demonstrative and possessive adjectives
Demonstrative Adjectives
What is an adjective?
The Oxford´s dictionaries, define an adjective as a word or phrase naming an attribute, added to or
grammatically related to a noun to modify or describe it.
In simple words adjectives modify and describe nouns and pronouns.
There are different kind of adjectives in English, but for this week´s lesson we will only explore two.
We use demonstrative adjectives to show where people, animals or things are located.
The Oxford´s dictionaries establish that they are used to indicate their referent's location (spatially,
temporally, or abstractly) in relation to the discourse context.

Possessive pronouns
We already know what an adjective is, and in this part of the lesson we will learn how to use the
possessive ones.
Ceri Jones, one of the writers of the New American Framework book, level 1A explains that use
possessive adjectives (my, your, his, her, its, our, their) before the noun to show possession.
e.g.
my brother, his father, her house, their car
The use of this words (possessive adjectives) before the nouns, is the same as to use (´s), and you
must remember this because it was explained in the first lesson of the current unit.
e.g.
this is my father´s sister
this is his sister (the sister of my father)
this is Jo´s best friend, Tony
this is his best friend (the best friend of Jo)
