Answer 1

Ответ:

Sure, let’s identify the determiners and pronouns in these sentences:

They’re not mine. They’re my sister’s.

Oh and what are theirs? Your dad’s for example.

In these sentences:

The determiners are: my, your. They are used to modify a noun to determine the kind of reference it has. I’ve bolded them for you.

The pronouns are: They’re, mine, They’re, theirs. Pronouns are used in place of a noun that is already known or can be understood easily. I’ve bolded them for you.

Please note that “They’re” is a contraction of “They are”, where “They” is a pronoun and “are” is a verb. In this context, I’ve treated “They’re” as a pronoun for simplicity.
