Possessive pronouns are stand-alone words that both represent the possessed object and the owner. They include, in English: mine, yours, hers and theirs.

Usage is the same as in English. For example: Which car is better.... yours. and similarly: Whose house is that? Hers.

Take care, because in English some possessive modifers are the same as the stand-alone possessive pronouns: his can be used in the context of "that's his car" and That car is his. This page discusses the latter. I will therefore use "hers" to avoid ambiguity, but of course it is gender-irrelevant.

In Hungarian these words are listed below, but don't forget to include the article!

• az enyém mine
• a tied yours
• az övé hers
• a mienk ours
• a tietek yours (pl)
• az övék theirs

• az enyéim mine
• a tieid yours
• az övéi hers
• a mieink ours
• a tieitek yours (pl) (Check out those three vowels!)
• az övéik theirs

Here are some examples of possessive pronouns at work.

• Ez a kutya az enyém This dog is mine
• Ezek a kutyák az enyéim These dogs are mine
  
  
• Melyiket akarod? Which do you want?
• A tiedet (I want) yours
• Az övéiket (I want) thiers
