While some classify the words my, your, etc. as possessive adjectives,[REF] others, due to the differences noted above, do not consider them adjectives - at least, not in English - and prefer possessive determiners.
Some authors who classify both sets of words as "possessive pronouns" or "genitive pronouns" apply the terms dependent/independent[REF] or weak/strong[REF] to refer, respectively, to my, your, etc. and mine, yours, etc.
