It seems like there might be a misunderstanding in the phrasing of your question. Let’s clarify the terms involved:
- A referent is typically a word or expression that refers to something, often a noun or noun phrase.
- A pronoun substitutes for a noun, often referring back to a noun mentioned earlier in the text.
- A possessive refers to a form that indicates ownership or a relationship, often used with nouns or pronouns (like "my," "his," "hers," "the dog’s").
Based on this, we may conclude that:
- A pronoun can refer to a noun (the referent).
- Possessive pronouns show ownership or relationship.
So if you are looking to fill the blanks, it might read:
"A referent is a noun that refers to a pronoun that indicates possession."
