"मुझे मेरी किताब दो।"

Translation: Give me my book.

[Fun_Bucket]

Why doesn't "give my book to me" work as a correct translation?

[kzamzow12]

I agree and I reported it

[blahblahblee]

This should use अपनी instead of मेरी should it not? Or would that leave who's book it is undetermined?

[M_A_Ashraf]

मुझे अपनी किताब दो - Give me your book
मुझे मेरी किताब दो - Give me my book
उसे उसकी किताब दो - Give him his book
उसे अपनी किताब दो - Give him your book

अपनी is a reflexive pronoun that always refers back to the subject of the sentence. Since the subject of an imperative sentence is You, अपनी means 'your' in an imperative sentence.

[AnUnicorn]

Does this not use अपकी because the implied subject is "you"?

(And does that mean a "use your own thing!" command would take अपकी without an antecedent? Like would "read your own book!" be 'अपकी किताब पढ़ो!'?)

[V2Blast]

Neither Hindi nor English generally includes the subject (being commanded/told to do something) in the sentence.

Not sure about your second question, but I think so.

[OJFord]

Assuming you mean अपनी (न, not क), yes, exactly.
