Task 7: In Spanish, possessive pronouns are used to talk...

In Spanish, possessive pronouns are used to talk about something that belongs to someone.

Mío or mía refers to something that belongs to the speaker, while tuyo or tuya refer to something that belongs to the other person. For example:

• Es mío. - It’s mine. (Masculine)

• Es mía. - It’s mine. (Feminine)

• Es tuyo - It’s yours. (Masculine)

• Es tuya - It’s yours. (Feminine)

Tuyo and tuya are the possessive pronouns for the second person singular (tú). You can use it when speaking to one person informally.

Spanish often uses possessive pronouns to avoid repeating the noun when it is already clear from context.
