In Thai grammar, possessive nouns are used to indicate ownership or association and are constructed differently than in English. The Thai language lacks a specific possessive pronoun, so possession is often established through context or the use of certain markers. For instance, the word “ของ” (of) could be used between two nouns to show possession, while pronouns are many times used with possessive meanings as well. Mastery of these structures is an important step to becoming proficient in Thai.
