\Thine\ ([th][imac]n), pron. & a. [OE. thin, AS. [eth][=i]n, originally gen. of [eth]u, [eth][=u], thou; akin to G. dein thine, Icel. [thorn]inn, possessive pron., [thorn][=i]n, gen. of [thorn][=u] thou, Goth. [thorn]eins, possessive pron., [thorn]eina, gen. of [thorn]u thou. See {Thou}, and cf. {Thy}.] A form of the possessive case of the pronoun thou, now superseded in common discourse by your, the possessive of you, but maintaining a place in solemn discourse, in poetry, and in the usual language of the Friends, or Quakers. Note: In the old style, thine was commonly shortened to thi (thy) when used attributively before words beginning with a consonant; now, thy is used also before vowels. Thine is often used absolutely, the thing possessed being understood.
