Possessives

Feb 05, 2024 09:46


Still working my way through Duolingo's German course.  For most of the things that make no sense, I can eventually find an answer via Google.  This one is still making no sense to me.

Ist es möglich, dass deine Kreditkarte im Koffer ist?

To me, it translates as: Is it possible that your credit card is in the suitcase?  Duo says that it's: Is it possible that your credit card is in your suitcase.

Does the possessive, deine, somehow extend to the next noun?

It's a weird online course, but it's taught me a lot.  I watched a movie and understood everything...and then I tried again and had to read all the subtitles all the time.  Still, it's progress.
