物主代词用法归纳

 一、物主代词的用法

物主代词分形容词性物主代词(my, your, his, her, its, our, your, their)和名词性物主代词(mine, yours, his, hers, its, ours, yours, theirs)。形容词性物主代词在句只用作定语；名词性物主代词则不能用作定语，但可以用作主语、宾语、表语、连用of作定语。如：

His son is taller than hers. 他的儿子比她的儿子高。

Her son is a friend of ours. 她的儿子是我们的朋友。

Ours is a great country. 我们的国家是一个伟大的国家

This is my desk and that’s hers. 这是我的书桌，那是她的书桌。

【说明】可以说 a friend of mine (ours, yours, hers, his, theirs)，但是不能说 a friend of me (us, you, her, him, theirs)，但是“名词+of it”有时可用来代替“its+名词”，如 its price 也可说成 the price of it。
