Questions & Answers about Она безусловно уверена в своей точке зрения.
Why is the Prepositional case used for в своей точке?
The short adjective уверена (sure or confident) requires the preposition в followed by the Prepositional case to indicate what someone is sure of. Because of this lesson's rule, the nominative phrase своя точка becomes в своей точке.
Why does the sentence use своей instead of её?
The reflexive possessive pronoun свой always refers back to the subject of the sentence. Since she is confident in her own point of view, you must use своей. Using её here would imply she is confident in some other woman's point of view.
Why is зрения not in the Prepositional case like the rest of the phrase?
The set phrase for point of view is точка зрения, literally meaning point of vision. The word зрения is in the Genitive case (of vision). When the phrase changes case after a preposition, only the main word точка changes. The word зрения stays exactly as it is.
Can I use the long form уверенная here instead of уверена?
No, you need the short form here. When an adjective acts as the main predicate of the sentence and connects to a specific prepositional object (like в plus Prepositional), Russian requires the short form уверена. The long form уверенная is mostly used to describe a noun directly, such as a confident person.
