Possessives


Possessives are indicating who is in possession of something, for example ”The book is mine”. 
The possessives are changing depending on the gender (en-/ett-words).
(NOTE 1: This is a very simplified explanation!)
(NOTE 2: In the "PLURAL" column you'll find words indicating that the possession contains several things.  For example: mina flickor = my girls, or våra flickor = our girls.


EXAMPLES:
Mitt hus är ditt hus My house is your house
Hon älskar hans manlighet = She loves his manliness
Vår katt älskar dina hundar = Our cat loves your dogs
Er lärare är en kvinna Your (pl) teacher is a woman


Translate to Swedish!

His cat loves me =
The dog is hers =
They love your (singular) house =
I love my children =
You (pl) love our houses =

NOTE!!! Some words don't change in plural! (We'll talk about that in another post!)

VOCABULARY
singular  hus  plural hus (house, houses) 
singular  hund  plural hundar (dog, dogs)
singular  barn  plural barn (child, children)

Sincerely,
Madeleine
