The key takeaways are about using possessive adjectives with verbs like 'is' or 'are' to show possession or ownership of nouns.

Possessive adjectives are used before nouns to show that someone or something possesses or owns that noun. Common possessive adjectives are my, your, his, her, its, our, their. They are used with verbs like 'is' or 'are' to identify who or what possesses or owns the noun.

Possessive adjectives can be used to show that a noun belongs to or is owned by a single person or thing (e.g. 'her book'), two or more people or things ('their books'), or groups of people ('our teachers').
