His
Reverent male ownership
His is the possessive form of he, indicating ownership or association: his car, his idea, his mother.
It functions as both a determiner before nouns and a pronoun standing alone: The book is his.
Traditionally used as a generic possessive for unspecified persons—Everyone should do his best—though this usage has declined in favor of gender-neutral alternatives like "their."
