English

Alja [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The incorrect pronoun in this sentence is their.

Explanation:

In this case, the function of their word is like a <u>possessive adjective</u>.

While it is not a pronoun, it is similar to a possessive pronoun.

The correct way to write the sentence would be:  My dog chased <em>its</em> tail.

Unlike a pronoun, instead of replacing a noun, the possessive adjective <u>functions as an adjective</u>, and is placed before the noun it will modify.
