Explanation
Forms: mío/a/os/as, tuyo/a, suyo/a, nuestro/a, vuestro/a, suyo/a. They replace noun + possessive: ¿tu coche? El mío está allá. Agreement is with the possessed thing, never the owner: la mía (my [car, fem.]), even if I'm male.
After ser the article often drops: este libro es mío. Suyo is ambiguous (his/her/your/their); de él, de ella, de usted clarifies.
Examples
Mi oficina es pequeña; la tuya es enorme.
My office is small; yours is huge.
