Possessive Pronouns
Possessive pronouns take the place of nouns and denote ownership. They have similar forms as possessive adjectives but are commonly used with a definite article. The article is generally omitted if the possessive pronoun is preceded by the verb “ser”. The gender and number of a possessive pronoun must agree with the noun it replaces.
Possessive Pronouns:
mine el mío, la mía los míos, las mías
yours (familiar) el tuyo, la tuya los tuyos, las tuyas
yours (formal), his, hers el suyo, la suya los suyos, las suyas
ours el nuestro, la nuestra los nuestros, las nuestras
yours (familiar) el vuestro, la vuestra los vuestros, las vuestras
yours (formal), theirs el suyo, la suya los suyos, las suyas

In addition, the series of adjectives can be placed before the noun, after the noun, or split into different parts.
Los niños jugaban con pelotas grandes, suaves y azul.
The children played with big, soft, and blue balls.
Multiple adjectives can be placed before a noun to stress essential qualities or emphasize characteristics:
Ella era un valiente y fuerte mujer. She is a brave and strong woman.
Two or more adjectives can be placed after a noun to clarify, restrict, or narrow the noun:
Él era un muchacho fuerte y activo. He was a strong and active boy.
It is also possible to split multiple adjectives by placing the subjective adjectives before the noun and the objective adjectives after it.
Michael Phelps es un fantástico nadador estadounidense.
Michael Phelps is a fantastic American swimmer.

Assessment of the Statement that Property is a Power Relationship Between People Property is the right to possess, enjoy or use a determinant thing, and includes the right of excluding others from doing the same. The concept of ownership or property has no single or widely accepted definition. Like any other concept it has great weight in public discourse and the popular usage varies broadly. Property is frequently conceived as a 'bundle of rights and obligations.' Property is stressed as not a relationship between people and things, but a relationship between people with regard to things.
After Allport, came along two psychologists, Raymond Cattell and Hans Eysenck, who each formulated their own theories regarding traits. Their theories have been the subjects of considerable research in the world of psychology. Cattell seemed to focus on far too many traits, while Eysenck seemed to focus on too few. As a result, psychologists have combined the two theories to make one satisfactory theory (Cherry), called “The Big Five Factors” (Myers). They are: conscientiousness, agreeableness, neuroticism, openness, and extraversion. These five factors merge to create the human personality (Cherry). Where people fall into these factors s...

Our book was divided into different chapters on various theorists and explained the major theories of personality that were proposed by the different psychologists. One of the theories that we learned about was the trait theories. Gordan Allport introduced the trait theory and his theory suggested that individual personalities are primarily composed of broad dispositions’. Eysenck’s three dimensions of Personality was also a part of the trait theory. Eysenck developed that model of personality upon three universal trails. And at last, the trait theory had the Big five dimensions which proposed that there are give basic dimensions of personality. One of the four conclusions in our textbook suggested that “until more unambiguous empirical research is available, the best one can do is to evaluate the various theories personally, and to accept concepts that make sense and reject those that do not”(531).
This template helps account for all of the different effects. We see these in examples (25), (26), (32-41), and (63). Adverbs are normally modifiers and quantifiers, and trigger minimality effects in wh-chains. Some belong only to the modifiers, like attentivement, and therefore do not have an effect on quantificational chains (Rizzi 2004: 244). “Simple adverb preposing targets the Mod position”, but can also target “the ordinary Focus position” and “negation belongs to both the quantificational class and the modifier class”(Rizzi 2004:244). This is one of the main differences between the first and second paper, the further analysis of the overall structure of the left periphery and how adverbs both help make it clear and how it explains their placement.
These denoting phrases can be classed into either one of two groups; those containing definite descriptions and those containing indefinite descriptions.
There is a saying that says “You have three selves. The self you show the world (me or Nygeria), the self your friends and family see (myself or Nygee), and the self that no one but yourself sees (I or Nusa).” This paper is gonna explain all of those sides of myself plus the alter ego (her or Nuna).

...ter may use several words that can be grouped together into one word. An example of this would be :
The first trait, extraversion, is a positive emotionality. It is associated with enthusiasm, assertiveness and sociability. Neuroticism is a negative emotionality. It is often labeled together with anxiety and negative emotional pain. The third trait, agreeableness is what defines characteristics such as compassion (or lack of), politeness, and traits surrounding people caring about others before caring about themselves. People who fall more towards agreeableness are more cooperative whereas those who are on the opposite spectrum are more competitive by nature. Conscientiousness is all about order and industriousness. Someone who falls towards being more conscientious are orderly and well-kept. Whereas those who are lower on the scale for conscientiousness are less orderly, more freely built, and not as organized. The last trait on the Big 5 Personality Model is openness to experience. This is often known as intellect, and can also represent creativeness, belief in the world, and can be closely related to how oneself views the world and
These scales are commonly alternatively represented by the OCEAN acronym Openness to experience, Conscientiousness, Extraversion/Introversion, Agreeableness and Neuroticism. The Big Five structure captures, at a broad level of abstraction, commonalities among most of the existing systems of personality description, and provides an integrative descriptive model for personality research.

3. A few personality traits, such as innovativeness, seem to predict who will purchase certain products.
In the fourth paragraph the use of additive conjunction appears through the use of “also” and “and”.

Transposition involves “replacing one word class with another without changing the meaning of the message” (Vinay and Darbelnet, 1958/1995: 88). For instance, the ST noun is translated into an adjective or a verb in the TL but it conveys thae same meaning of the ST. Newmark (1988: 85) defines transposition as “a translation procedure involving a change in the grammar from SL to TL.” Newmark gives four types of transposition. The first type is concerned with the form and position of the word. An example is given by Zakhir (2008: 3): “a red car”, "سيارة حمراء"; “a beautiful girl”, "فتاة جميلة". It can be noted from the latter example that the position of the adjective has been changed in the translation and this change depends on the grammatical rules of TL.
