mine PRON In Italian, possessive pronouns have the same forms as the corresponding adjectives, are usually preceded by an article, and reflect the gender and number of the noun they are standing for. So mine is translated by il mio, la mia, i miei, le mie, according to what is being referred to: your book and mine = il tuo libro e il mio; the blue car is mine = la macchina blu è la mia; his children are younger than mine = i suoi bambini sono più giovani dei miei; your shoes are brown, while mine are black = le tue scarpe sono marroni, mentre le mie sono nere.- Since Italian possessive adjectives, unlike English ones, may be preceded by an article, a demonstrative adjective or a numeral, an English possessive pronoun is often translated by an Italian possessive adjective: a cousin of mine = un mio cugino; that school friend of mine = quel mio compagno di scuola; four books of mine = quattro miei libri. - For examples and particular usages, see this entry.:
