How to use possession with words ending in a vowel

Been stumped on this for a while.been trying to figure out if when using possessive with words like brii, would you correctly pronounce it add dii brii or brii-i or brii'i. Seems I only run into this problem on ajectives for some reason.

As for words ending in vowels other than ii, I'd suggest just using the possessive adjectives as well.
