Possesive pronouns and adjectives

There’s also an “independent” form of each of these pronouns: mine, ours, yours, his, hers, its, and theirs. 

Possessive pronouns simplify constructions that show possession of a noun.

Jane likes  Jane’s outfits.

It sounds odd to use Jane’s name twice in this sentence. A possessive adjective solves the problem:

Jane likes her outfits.

Thus, possessive pronouns are quite handy and are used frequently in the English language.

possessive pronouns must be used without a noun.

My phone is dead. Pass me yours 

.Did you know that Labrador is mine ?

The house on the corner is theirs .
