To make an possessive pronoun in Indonesian, the personal pronoun / possessive adjective ( aku, kamu, dia, mereka, kami, kita ) comes after the noun.
No changes again in personal pronoun into possessive adjective like those ones in english ( "i" becomes "my", "you" becomes "your", and so on )
Noun + personal pronoun
Personal Pronoun : *All below are correct
~Saya/ Aku/ -ku
~Anda/ Kamu/ -mu/ engkau/ kau
~Dia/ ia/ -nya
~Kami/ Kita
~Mereka
For Example :
- Ibu saya = my mother
- Mobil kita = our car
- Rumah dia / Rumahnya = his/her house
- Komputerku/ Komputer aku = my conputer
- Pengalaman anda = your experience
- Bapakmu = your father
- Keberanian engkau = your braveness
- Nilai mereka = their score
- Kantor kita/ Kantor kami =our office
And now, how to say mine, yours, his, hers, its, ours and theirs in Indonesia language ?
It's so much easy ! Indonesian actually doesn't have lots of terms like mine, yours, his, hers, its, ours and theirs, we just add "punya + personal pronoun/ possessive adjective"
For Example :
- Mine is there ( Punyaku di situ )
- Where is yours ? ( Dimana punyamu ? )
- They have taken hers ( Mereka telah/ sudah mengambil punya dia )
- I ate theirs ( Aku memakan punya mereka )
