Theirs or Their’s? Here’s The Correct Possessive Form - Grammarhow With “theirs,” you will never see an object come after the word You will only use the word “theirs” to show ownership of an object already mentioned For example, “the dog is theirs” or “the food was theirs” are good ways of showing you how the possessive form changes when you use the pronoun “their ”
