The indefinite pronouns are used in place of nouns for people, things, or amounts that are unknown or unnamed.

They are: all, another, any, anybody, anyone, anything, both, each, either, enough, everybody, everyone, everything, few, fewer, less, little, many, more, most, much, neither, nobody, no one, nothing, none, one, other, others, several, some, somebody, someone, something, such, and they (people in general).

The adjective pronouns are called possessive adjectives, which are placed just before to describe that noun as belonging to someone or something,.

They are: my, your, his, her, their, its.

Examples:

Everyone has left the meeting but some are still waiting for a ride. (indefinite pronouns)

My father repaired my bicycle. (possessive adjectives)

Note: When an indefinite pronoun is placed before a noun, it is functioning as an adjective.

Example: Some people are still waiting for a ride.
