a possessive
.

Answer 1

It seems like there might be a misunderstanding in the phrasing of your question. Let’s clarify the terms involved:

1. A **referent** is typically a word or expression that refers to something, often a noun or noun phrase.
2. A **pronoun** substitutes for a noun, often referring back to a noun mentioned earlier in the text.
3. 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**."
