Possessive pronouns are an essential part of Belarusian grammar. They show ownership or possession of something, whether it is a tangible object or an abstract concept. In the Belarusian language, possessive pronouns are declined according to case and gender, so it is crucial to know the correct forms to use depending on the context. Practicing with exercises will help reinforce your understanding of possessive pronouns in Belarusian and improve your overall language skills.
