POSSESSIVE PRONOUNS
AND
ADVERBS
In Unit 4 we learn how to describe things using possessive pronouns that answer the question (Whose is this?) and adverbs that answer the question (How did you do this?) For example: The blue jumper is mine. The red one is yours. Walk slowly down the corridor, but run fast when you play football!
Let´s start by learning some vocabulary.
Posessive Pronouns tell us who something belongs to. They answer the question "Whose is it?"
Posessive Adjectives Possessive pronouns
It´s my jacket. It´s mine.
They´re your trainers. They´re yours.
It´s his racket. It´s his.
It´s her water bottle. The water bottle is hers.
They´re our trophies. They´re ours.
It´s their rucksack. The rucksack is theirs.

ADVERBS
We also learned
about adverbs. Just as we use adjectives to describe nouns
(person/place/thing), we use adverbs to describe verbs (actions).
Adjective
Example Change
Adverbs
most adjective
slow + -ly
slowly
ends consonant +
-y healthy
+ -ily
healthily
Some adverbs are
irregular. Good changes to well and fast stays fast.
We put adverbs at
the end of a sentence or after a verb.
He runs slowly. She walks fast.
Adverbs answer the question "How did they do
it?"
How did he run? He ran slowly.
How did she walk? She walked fast.
