Traduzcan:
4. The pencil is hers.
5. The books are yours.
6. The magazine is ours.

2. 1. My boots are brown.
Possessive adjective: My boots It is an adjective because it describes the object, boots. The possessive adjective is typically written before the object.

3. 2. The boots are mine.
Possessive pronoun: The boots are mine. It is a pronoun because it is not followed by the object, boots. Possessive pronouns typically do not precede the object.

4. 3. Their friends are nice.
Possessive adjective: Their friends are nice. It is an adjective because it comes before the object in possession.

5. 4. The pencil is hers. El lápiz es suyo.
Since lápiz is masculine, the possessive has to be masculine even if she is feminine.

6. 5. The books are yours. Los libros son tuyos.
Since libros are masculine, the possessive has to be masculine regardless if you are a boy or a girl.
A plural possessive is required because books are plural even if you are just one person.

7. 6. The magazine is ours. La revista es nuestra.
Since revista is feminine, the possessive has to be feminine regardless if we are males or females.
A singular possessive is required because it is just one magazine although we are more than one person.

However, if one says, “This box is heavy” it is clear which box because of the demonstrative.

15. Demonstrative Pronouns
What if you want to say,
“That book is mine, but this one is his.”?
That is followed by book, so it is an adjective.
However, this is not followed by book so it is a pronoun.
Demonstrative pronouns are EXACTLY the same as demonstrative adjectives except for the accent marks.

17. Demonstratives That book is mine, but this one is his.
Ese libro es mío, pero éste es suyo.
Notice how Ese is followed by libro and does NOT have an accent. Why? Because it is a demonstrative adjective. Éste, however does have an accent because it is replacing the noun libro.
