GRAMMAR POSSESSIVE FORMS


- We add –‘s to a singular noun (people and animals) to show that something belongs to someone.
The man’s passport Gemma’s mother the dog’s collar my father’s car.
- With plural nouns we add a final –s (men, children, etc.) Ex. My parents’ house my brothers’ room
- With plural nouns without a final –s Ex. The men’s toilet the women’s section
- With two or more names Ex. Jenny and Mark’s flat
- We can use the –‘s and –s’ forms on their own when it isn´t necessary to repeat a noun.
Ex. It´s not my car; it´s my wife’s this is my room, that is my brothers’
Noun + noun
When the possessor is a thing ( not a person/ an animal) we usually use noun + of + noun.
The door of the house the difficulty of the situation
- We can sometimes use just noun + noun Ex. The kitchen window my holiday photos
- When the possessor is a long phrase or when it´s followed by a descriptive phrase or clause
The problems of unemployed workers the brother of the man we met in the pub
A friend of mine
-In this construction we use a possessive pronoun (mine, yours, his, hers, its, ours, yours, theirs) ot the ‘s / s’ form
Is jack a friend of yours? – He is a friend of Mike´s Teresa has a book of mine.

I. Rewrite each sentence using an apostrophe (‘). Use This is or These are.

- It’s his.
A: Whose shoes are those?
