In English the possessive adjectives are my, your, his, her, our, and their Possessive adjectives have to agree with the noun that is being possessed. They DO NOT agree with the number of people possessing the object.

11 The possessive construction
In Spanish, you CANNOT use ’s to show possession Instead, you use the word “DE” to show possession, especially in cases where su/sus can be confusing. Ex: The girl’s book. El libro de la niña. (The book of the girl) Her book = Su libro = El libro de ella the possessive adjective SU has different meanings (your, his, her, or their). Its meaning is usually clear by its use in the sentence. However, if there should be any confusion, the preposition de plus a pronoun or noun can be used: Using de If you are using a name or noun to refer to the person or entity that is in possession, the prepositional phrase of de followed by the noun is used, as in el libro de Juan, John's book. A few examples: Ver el perfil de Pablo. See Pablo's profile. Él no cree en el movimiento de mujeres. He doesn't believe in the women's movement. Es la madre de la estudiante. She is the student's mother. It similarly is possible to indicate possession by using de followed by a pronoun, such as in de él, but such usage is somewhat uncommon except when the use of a determiner would be ambiguous in the context. For example, if su libro ("his, her, your or their book") would be ambiguous, we could say el libro de él or el libro de ella ("his book" or "her book").

12 Possessive “DE” To say that someone or something belongs to someone or something else, invert the possessor and the thing possessed and put de between them. Ex: Our uncle’s book. El libro de nuerto tío. (The book of our uncle)
