Consider свой, p. 55. This is the reflexive pronoun: cf. Tulane's motto: non sibi, sed suis 'not for herself, but for her own'. The last word is like Russian свой, referring to the subject. It means 'belonging to or of the subject NP'. Note that the 3rd person distinguishes reflexive and non-reflexive. Learn key phrases Иван любит его жену ~ Иван любит свою жену. Do workbook E and exer p. 55.

 

Note: Иван знает, где его жена. Ð Not свой, which must have a coreferent within its own clause: Иван знает свою жену.

Иван понимает, почему его жена не работает. Again not свой, as the referent Иван is in an upper clause. By contrast: Пожему Иван не понимает свою жену.
