Question

which sentence uses a pronoun in the possessive case?

last friday, we had a game night at the hansens home.
they made homemade pizza and taught us some new games.
she couldnt stop laughing at elis crazy dance game.
my new favorite board game is called sink the ship.

Explanation:

Identify the target concept

The question asks to find the sentence containing a pronoun in the possessive case.

Define possessive pronouns

Possessive pronouns show ownership or possession. Examples include my, your, his, her, its, our, and their.

Analyze each option

  • Option 1: "Last Friday, we had a game night at the Hansen's home."
  • "we" is a subjective pronoun. "Hansen's" is a possessive noun, not a pronoun.
  • Option 2: "They made homemade pizza and taught us some new games."
  • "They" is subjective; "us" is objective. No possessive pronoun is present.
  • Option 3: "She couldn't stop laughing at Eli's crazy dance game."
  • "She" is subjective. "Eli's" is a possessive noun, not a pronoun.
  • Option 4: "My new favorite board game is called Sink the Ship."
  • "My" is a possessive pronoun showing ownership of the favorite board game.

Select the correct sentence

The fourth sentence contains the possessive pronoun "My".

Answer:

  • (A) Last Friday, we had a game night at the Hansen's home.
  • (B) They made homemade pizza and taught us some new games.
  • (C) She couldn't stop laughing at Eli's crazy dance game.
  • (D) My new favorite board game is called Sink the Ship. (Correct answer)
