Question

Fill in the blanks with the most appropriate words.

Isn't that ___ friend over there?
Oh! No, she isn't ___ friend, she is ___.

• A. your / my / yours
• B. your / his / my
• C. my / yours / mine
• D. mine / my / yours
• E. ours / your / mine

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

your / my / yours

The first sentence indicates possession in second person singular subjective, hence "your". The second blank indicates possession in first person singular subjective, hence, "my". The third blank indicates possession in second person singular objective, that is your friend, hence, "yours". Hence, Option A is correct. The rest of the options do not adhere to this rule, hence incorrect.
