Expressing possessionIn English, we use
‘s
to indicate that something belongs to someone.
the book of
Mariela
Mariela’s
book
In Spanish,
‘s
does not make sense. It does not exist. So we use the first, longer form.
the book of
Mariela
Slide3
The object comes firstthe book of
Mariela
el
libro
de
MarielaSlide4
Translate the phrases to Spanish.
1. The family of Miguel
2. The twin of Inés
3. the great-grandmother of Julia
4. the dress of
Esmerelda
5. the hat of Jose
6. The computer of the teacherSlide5
Moving from English to Spanish We won’t see phrases written in the order we just saw. Usually in English, we use the
‘s
form. So we need to be able to rearrange the phrase before translating it.
Miguel’s friend
the friend of Miguel el amigo de MiguelSlide6
Rearrange the phrases, then translate them to Spanish.
The girl’s father
Juana’s sister
Miguel’s stepfather
Rosario’s mother-in-law
Sara’s friendship
Rico’s babySlide7
Possessive PronounsIn English: my, your, his/her, our, their
Examples? Slide8
my = mimy house =
mi casa
*Note: We don’t say “mi la casa.” It’s the same as saying “my the house.” You only need ONE article. You can have a definite article (el, la, los,
las
), an indefinite article (un,
una
,
unos
,
unas
), or a possessive article. You cannot have more than one. Slide9
my = mi or mismy house =

his shirt
=

her shirts =

camisas
their hat =

sombrero
their
hats
=
sus
sombreros
*Note: mi,
tu
, and
su
do not change when the object is feminine. Why?
*Note: Add an S when they have more than one thing. Slide11
For OUR, the rules are a little bit different. You DO change the end of the word when the object is feminine.
