Description

In Arabic, possessive pronouns, or attached pronouns, are used to indicate ownership or possession of a noun. They are attached to the end of a noun, and their form changes depending on the gender and number of the possessor. Here's a breakdown of the key possessive pronouns: 1. First Person (Singular):

• My: "ي" (ee) - This is attached to the noun to indicate that the noun belongs to "I" (the speaker).

• Our: "نا" (naa) - This is attached to the noun to indicate that the noun belongs to "we" (the speaker and others).

• Your (Male):  " ك َ " (ak) - Used when addressing a male individual.
• Your (Female): "ك ِ " (ik) - Used when addressing a female individual. 

• Your (Masculine/Feminine): "كُم" (kum) - Used when addressing a group of people (both male and female) or when referring to a group of males. 

• His: "ه ُ " (oh) - Indicates that the noun belongs to "he" (a male person). 
• Her: "ها" (haa) - Indicates that the noun belongs to "she" (a female person). 
• Their: "هُم" (hum) - Indicates that the noun belongs to "they" (plural, masculine).
