сво

"Сво" is not a standalone Russian word; it is likely part of a larger word (e.g., "свой" meaning "one's own").

In a sentence

  • Я пошёл в свою комнату.

    I went to my room.

    Here, 'свою' indicates possession pertaining to the subject 'я' (I). It is adjusted to agree in gender, number, and case with the noun 'комнату' (room), which is feminine, singular, and in the accusative case.

  • Каждый думал о своём будущем.

    Everyone thought about their own future.

    The word 'своём' here relates to 'каждый' (everyone) to express possession, adjusted for the prepositional case and singular number of 'будущем' (future).

  • Мы любим свои семьи.

    We love our families.

    The word 'свои' indicates possession referring back to the plural subject 'мы' (we), and it agrees in number and case with 'семьи' (families, plural accusative).
