The table below shows the forms of Possessive Pronouns in Accusative Case (Biernik). Notice, that many forms are repeated.

The table below shows the same forms, but the rows and columns that have repeated forms have been collapsed.

The columns in plural number changed order, so that singular neuter forms and plural other than masculine personal forms could be merged.

The owner in Polish is	English Possessive Pronoun	The owned object in Polish is
		singular			plural
		masculine	feminine	neuter	other than masculine personal	masculine personal
singular first person	my	mojego / mój	moją	moje		moich
singular second person	your (singular)	twojego / twój	twoją	twoje		twoich
singular third person masculine or neuter	his, its	jego
singular third person feminine	her, its	jej
plural first person	our	naszego / nasz	naszą	nasze		naszych
plural second person	your (plural)	waszego / wasz	waszą	wasze		waszych
plural third person	their	ich

Notice that the singular third person has more than one English translation. Why? Because we use his and her for objects too. In Polish language every noun has a gender and this gender doesn't match the English gender. For example książka(book) is feminine, so we will say her instead of its. Compare the English and Polish possessive pronouns in the sentences below:

Examples

To jest moja ulubiona restauracja. Gdy patrzę na jej wnętrze, czuję się jak w Hiszpanii.	This is my favorite restaurant. When I look at its interior, I feel like I'm in Spain.
To jest moja najlepsza przyjaciółka. Gdy patrzę na jej sukces, czuję ogromną radość.	This is my best friend (female). When I look at her success, I feel immense joy.

To jest mój ulubiony park. Gdy patrzę na jego drzewa, czuję się jak w lesie.	This is my favorite park . When I look at its trees, I feel like I'm in a forest.
To jest mój najlepszy przyjaciel. Gdy patrzę na jego sukces, czuję ogromną radość.	This is my best friend (male). When I look at his success, I feel immense joy.

Alternative forms
