Possessive Pronouns
Possessive adjectives/Possessive Pronoun
Also sometimes interchangeably referred to as Possessive pronouns /connected pronouns as they show onwnership (my, your) in contrast to personal pronouns like I, you which does not show ownership.
They are not seperated as they are in English. For example, in English we say “ listen to me “ whereas in Arabic, the word “me “ is attached to the word “ listen “.
In the example below the arabic word كِتابٌ meaning a book has been taken
another example shown below is with pen قَلَمْ
similarly for ربّ ( My Lord )
ي + ربّ = ربيّ - My Lord
ربّ + كَ = - ربُّكا - your Lord
try doing it yourself for “ his “and “her” Lord
Go over these few times and memorise the suffix which remains the same irrespective of the word being used.
