Basic Grammar #16 - The "sin" concept. "Han henter bilen sin."

In this episode we'll look at when to use the "sin" concept, and how to find the right ending. 1. The endings follow the object they belong to; Han legger sønnen sin. Han er på øya si. Han vasker huset sitt. Han mister nøklene sine. 2. The condition for using "sin" is as follows: "If the subject is in the 3. person (he,she,they), and the object belongs to the subject, replace hans/hennes/deres with sin/si/sittt/sine! :) 3. The two most common "traps" are; - be sure what the subject is - with subclauses; find subject and object again FIll-ins: Han reiser på tur med kona …….. (his own). Han og kona ……. (his own) reiser på tur sammen. Han sier at kona ……. er hjemme i dag. .. This might be the hardest item in the grammar - but once the subject/object part is more clear, everything becomes more easy! And, Great work!! :D 😄
