Dear Torsten

I try to compare about the question:

This is my car.
It's a Vauxhall.===> It's means is type (mark) of the car. (personal pronount)
Its colour is green. ===> The Car colour is green. (possesive adjective).

Are them correct?

It's a Vauxhall = It is a Vauxhall. "It's" is always a contraction. In this case the pronoun 'it' is followed by the verb 'is'.

Its colour is green - 'its' denotes possession.

Hi dear torsten
In the unit7, the blue one is a compound of Personal Pronoun ( it) + present tense of to be verb ( is )
But the red one just is a Possessive Adjective for third simple person ( it )
best regards.

Your use of its" and "it's" is correct.

I like it but it's a little bit old and used (possibly 'tired' would be better than 'used'). I would like to change it for a new one after graduation.

Dear Mr.Torsten,
Thank you very much for the new lesson you sent me through email. you have asked me to make sentences using possessive adjectives. Following are the few sentences I made using possessive adjectives.

1. My name is Sadia.
2. My husband is an accountant.
3. We have a daughter and we love her very much.
4. Her favourite hobby is to read story books.

I hope there is no mistake in these questions. If there is any mistake please correct me. Thank you. Best wishes

So I'll replace the wrong ones with these two:

The cat plays with its kittens.

Oh! The children are miserable; they throwed their clothes everywhere.

'They threw their clothes everywhere.'
'To throw' is an irregular verb. The past tense is 'threw', not 'throwed'.

I/you/he/she/it/we/they/ <singular noun> / <plural noun> threw
