116. Comparison between suus and is. We learned above (§ 98. c) that suus is a reflexive possessive. When his, her (poss.), its, their, do not refer to the subject of the sentence, we express his, her, its by eius, the genitive singular of is, ea, id ; and their by the genitive plural, using eōrum to refer to a masculine or neuter antecedent noun and eārum to refer to a feminine one.

EXAMPLES
 * Galba calls his (own) son, Galba suum fīlium vocat
 * Galba calls his son (not his own, but another's), Galba eius fīlium vocat
 * Julia calls her (own) children, Iūlia suōs līberōs vocat
 * Julia calls her children (not her own, but another's), Iūlia eius līberōs vocat
 * The men praise their (own) boys, virī suōs puerōs laudant
 * The men praise their boys (not their own, but others'), virī eōrum puerōs laudant
