«Мой» in English typically translates to my or mine, depending on its grammatical function in the sentence. 1. Possessive Adjective: My Use my when it is followed by a noun. It indicates that the noun belongs to the speaker.

  • My car is fast. (Моя машина быстрая.)
  • I lost my keys. (Я потерял свои ключи.)
  • This is my book. (Это моя книга.)

2. Possessive Pronoun: Mine Use mine when the noun is not mentioned or has already been mentioned. It stands alone and cannot be followed by a noun.

  • The red car is mine. (Красная машина — моя.)
  • Is this yours or mine? (Это твоё или моё?)
  • A friend of mine. (Один мой друг.)

3. Usage in Slang and Informal Contexts In certain informal situations or specific phrases, "мой" might be translated differently:

  • My bad: Used as "моя вина" or "мой косяк" when admitting a mistake.
  • My man: Used as "мой друг" or "красава" when addressing or referring to someone.
