Grammar Notes[]

Possessives его, её, их[]

The possessives его (his/its, masculine or neuter), её (her, feminine), and их (their) have the following peculiarities:

  • They are undeclinable, they do not change form regardless of the case the noun they refer too is in.
  • Unlike the genitive of the corresponding possessive pronoun (его/него, её/неё, and их/них), they do not get an initial н when after a preposition. So, for example:
    • в её комнате (in her room) = correct
    • в неё комнате = wrong
