Question

Fill in the blank with a possessive pronoun from the alternatives given below:

This book is ____.

• A. Its
• B. Mine
• C. Your
  
• D. My

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

Mine

Here the person possessing the book is the object of the sentence. Hence objective possessive pronoun should be used. Hence, Option D is correct. The rest of the options do not adhere to this rule and use nominative possessive pronouns, hence incorrect.
