*We avoid using its and one’s as possessive pronouns except when we use them with own:

One doesn’t like to spend too much time on one’s own.
Typical errors
- We don’t use ’s after possessive pronouns:
Are those gloves hers?
Not: Are those gloves her’s?
- ’s is not used with the possessive pronoun its. It’s means ‘it is’:
The team is proud of its ability to perform consistently well.
Not: … proud of it’s ability …
- We don’t use another determiner with a possessive determiner:
I’m going to get my hair cut this afternoon.
Not: … get the my hair cut …
- We don’t use possessive determiners on their own. They are always at the beginning of noun phrases:
That’s not my book. It’s yours. (or It’s your book.)
Not: It’s your.
- We don’t use possessive pronouns before nouns:
Lots of our friends were at the party.
Not: Lots of ours friends …
