For me it works ok with a British accent as well!

<div>Are you thinking of the listing use of “your”, as in the following made-up example? (I normally don’t like using made-up examples, but when I tried to search for a natural example the results were overwhelmed by the song “You’ve got your troubles and I‘ve
got mine”.)</div>

<div>Here “your” could be replaced by “the”, so it does seem to fit what Zahra is looking for. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I have certainly heard this sort of thing, but don’t know if it is restricted to a particular region, though to my ear it sounds better with a Brooklyn accent (as does everything else ;-) ).</div>

<div>I think I heard a variety of American English where "your" was used in a very much discourse way, literally on one NP out of three or four. I cannot describe the function properly (probably, supporting contact with the interlocutor) and cannot place it
regionally - maybe native speakers will help.</div>
