Explicación:
Cuando el modificador posesivo modifica al nombre es un adjetivo posesivo. Si el modificador posesivo sustituye al nombre es un pronombre posesivo.
En español el adjetivo posesivo su, se traduce al inglés dependiendo del sujeto:
Su = his => su, de él , Su hijo = His son. (de su padre)
Su = her => su, de ella , Su hijo = Her son. (de su madre)
Su = their => su, de ellos , Su hijo = their son. (de sus padres)
