His, Her, Him… which one?
This homework uses situations from your recent classes — Gregory, movies, the woman at work, her friend, English at home — to make a few small words more automatic when you speak.
🎧 Who / whose?
Listen to the full sentence. Then decide what the small word refers to.
🔧 Fix the Pattern
Choose the natural version. Your choice should turn green when correct or red when incorrect, and you will see a short explanation. Then listen to the correct version and say it aloud.
📖 Two Real-Life Situations
The photo at work
A woman at work showed Alice a photo of her friend. Her friend had beautiful white hair. Alice complimented her and tried to keep the conversation going.
Same word, different job: her friend ≠ complimented her.
English at home
Gregory has used English for years. Many of his games, movies and books are in English. When Alice does not understand something, she sometimes asks him. She wants to feel more comfortable speaking English with him.
Again: his movies ≠ ask him.
👂 Hear the Small Word
Listen before you read the options. Then choose the word you heard.
🔀 Put It in Order
Build the sentence by clicking the words. Say the final sentence aloud.
🧠 My or Mine? Her or Hers?
This is the last controlled exercise. One form goes before a noun; the other can stand alone.
🗣️ Use It About Your Life
No script. Speak for 20–30 seconds for each prompt.
1 · Gregory & English
Talk about Gregory’s relationship with English.
2 · The woman at work
Retell the photo story.
3 · Things around you
Choose three objects near you. Say who they belong to without repeating the noun every time.
That is his phone. It’s his.
That is her bag. It’s hers.

📌 The Short Explanation
| Person | Does the action | Receives the action | Before a noun | Possession alone |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| I | I | me | my book | It’s mine. |
| Gregory | he | him | his book | It’s his. |
| a woman | she | her | her book | It’s hers. |
| we | we | us | our book | It’s ours. |
HE → HIM → HIS
He reads. · I ask him. · His phone is in English.
Him never shows possession.
SHE → HER → HER / HERS
She showed me a photo. · I complimented her. · Her hair is white. · The bag is hers.
Fast test
Noun after it? → my / his / her / our.
No noun, but possession? → mine / his / hers / ours.
After a preposition
with him · for him · to me · with her.
Use the object form, not he / she / I.
