Top answer

Hello, anilrgowda - and welcome to English Forums. Those two words are completely unrelated. 'His' is the masculine singular possessive pronoun and adjective ( I want his girlfriend ), and 'is' is a verb, the 3rd person singular present simple form of 'be' ( He is my best friend ).

"His" and "is" are completely different. Do you have trouble with the difference between "her" and "is", or between "my" and "is"?

Hi,

His and 'is' are completely unrelated.

Where, 'his' - male possesive pronoun

'is' is a verb(3rd person singular)

e.g His car is new

You can see both are used and both helps in sentence formation.

They cannot be interchanged

I hope my answer helps.
