Possessive case : ウィキペディア英語版
Possessive

A possessive form is a word or grammatical construction used to indicate a relationship of possession in a broad sense. This can include strict ownership, or a number of other types of relation to a greater or lesser degree analogous to it.〔http://alt-usage-english.org/genitive_and_possessive.html〕
Most European languages feature possessive forms associated with personal pronouns, like the English ''my'', ''mine'', ''your'', ''yours'', ''his'' and so on. There are two main ways in which these can be used (and a variety of terminologies for each):
* Together with a noun, as in ''my car'', ''your sisters'', ''his boss''. Here the possessive form serves as an adjective or determiner, and may be called a possessive adjective, possessive determiner or (adjectival) possessive pronoun.
* Without an accompanying noun, as in ''mine is red'', ''I prefer yours'', ''this book is his''. A possessive used in this way is called a possessive pronoun, or (to distinguish it from the above type, which may also be so named) a substantival possessive pronoun.
Some languages, including English, also have possessive forms derived from nouns or noun phrases, such as ''Jane's'', ''cows' '' and ''nobody else's''. These can be used in the same two ways as the pronoun-derived forms: adjectivally, as in ''Jane's office''; and substantivally, as in ''that one is Jane's''.
Possessives are sometimes regarded as a grammatical case (the possessive case), although they are also sometimes considered to represent the genitive case, or are not assigned to any case, depending on which language is being considered. On the other hand, some languages, such as the Cariban languages, can be said to have a possessed case, used to indicate the other party (the thing possessed) in a possession relationship. A similar feature found in some languages is the possessive affix, usually a suffix, added to the (possessed) noun to indicate the possessor, as in the Finnish ''taloni'' ("my house"), where ''talo'' means "house" and the suffix ''-ni'' means "my".
The glossing abbreviation or may be used to indicate possessive forms.
