在英语中有些名词可以加s来表示所有关系,带这种词尾的名词形式称为该名词的所有格,如:a teachers book。名词所有格的规则如下:
1) 单数名词词尾加s,复数名词词尾没有s,也要加s,如the boys bag 男孩的书包,mens room 男厕所。
2) 若名词已有复数词尾-s ,只加,如:the workers struggle 工人的斗争。
3) 凡不能加s的名词,都可以用名词+of +名词的结构来表示所有关系,如:the title of the song 歌的名字。
4) 在表示店铺或教堂的名字或某人的家时,名词所有格的后面常常不出现它所修饰的名词,如:the barbers 理发店。
5) 如果两个名词并列,并且分别有s,则表示分别有;只有一个s,则表示共有。
如:Johns and Marys room(两间) John and Marys room(一间)
6) 复合名词或短语,s 加在最后一个词的词尾。
如:a month or twos absence
