German Possessive Adjectives Exercises

In German, possessive adjectives such as mein (my), dein (your), and ihr (her) are used to describe a noun and must agree with it in gender, number, and case. They help indicate ownership directly linked to a noun within a sentence.

On this page, we've collected a few exercises for you to practice forming possessive adjectives.

Exercise 1: German Possessive Adjectives

A first round to practise the basic forms — mein, dein, sein, ihr, unser. Watch the ending: it changes with the gender, number, and case of the noun, just like ein would.

1.
Das ist mymy Auto.
2.
Ist das youryour Bruder?
3.
Sie liest herher Buch.
4.
Wir haben ourour Hund verloren.
5.
Hast du youryour Schlüssel gefunden?
6.
Sie waschen theirtheir Auto.
7.
Anna hat herher Tasche vergessen.
8.
Die Kinder suchen theirtheir Ball.
9.
Er repariert hishis Fahrrad.
10.
Paul trägt hishis Mantel.

Exercise 2: German Possessive Adjectives

More practice across all subjects, including the polite Ihr (always capitalised). Pay attention to whether the noun is the subject (nominative) or the object (accusative) — the ending shifts accordingly.

1.
Maria findet herher Schlüssel nicht.
2.
Haben Sie youryour Jacke gesehen?
3.
Das ist ourour Haus.
4.
Tom hat hishis Buch verloren.
5.
Ich habe mymy Brille vergessen.
6.
Karl und Anna suchen theirtheir Katze.
7.
Wo ist youryour Rucksack?
8.
Sie lädt herher Freunde ein.
9.

10.
