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. _________________ Cheers m' dears! |

Hi, everyone!
My name is Renata and my nickname is "menina". "Menina" means girl in portuguese language. I´m from Brazil (wonderful country). I live in São Paulo, a very large city in the south-west of Brazil. It´s famous fou its economy. If you like, I can tell more about my city. I have two sisters. Their names are Paula and Gisele. Paula lives with our parents and Gisele lives with her husband. I just finished the lesson 4. I really love this site! It´s a challenge for me! |

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. _________________ Cheers m' dears! |

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 _________________ Cheers m' dears! |
