The correct answer is "I didn't forget my keys, but he forgot his.", which uses the subject pronouns "I" and "he" and the possessive adjectives "my" and "his."
Pronoun
If you've ever paused before who vs whom, its vs it's, or me vs I — you've felt how much weight pronouns carry in English. They're tiny words but they're case-sensitive (I vs me), context-dependent, and one of the few places where everyday English still trips careful speakers. Get the common patterns right and you instantly sound more careful.
A pronoun is a closed class of small words that replace nouns or noun phrases. Types: personal (I, you, he…), demonstrative (this, that), relative (who, which), interrogative (who?, what?), reflexive (myself), and indefinite (everyone, nobody).
Possessive
If you've ever stared at its and it's and not been sure which one belonged in your sentence, you've met English's most-confused possessive. The fix is small but immediate: its (no apostrophe) is the possessive of it; it's (with apostrophe) always means it is or it has. Get this right and you instantly look more careful as a writer.
The possessive form shows ownership in English. Most nouns take 's (Sarah's book); plural nouns ending in s take just an apostrophe (students' essays). Pronouns have irregular possessive determiners (my, your, his, her) and pronouns (mine, yours, his, hers).
A1 | Elementary | Beginners
If you can say your name, ask Where is the toilet?, and read a simple bus sign — but freeze when someone speaks at normal speed — you're at A1. That's not a problem to fix; it's the level where most learners actually live for a while, and recognising it lets you pick the right material instead of drowning in advanced grammar that wasn't meant for you yet.
A1 is the starting level of the CEFR framework, covering basic everyday communication: greetings, introductions, simple personal questions, present-tense forms of be/have/do, and core determiners and prepositions.
Difficulty: Easy
If a textbook leaves you confused, sometimes the issue isn't the topic — it's that the practice material is layered with extra complications. Filtering by Easy strips that away. You get one rule at a time, in plain everyday language, with no trick questions. It's how you make a shaky foundation solid before stacking more on top.
The Easy difficulty tag marks beginner-level questions and challenges — typically A1 or early A2. Single-rule focus, short sentences, common vocabulary, one clear correct answer.
