2.以 s結(jié)尾的復(fù)數(shù)名詞直接加“'”

3.以 s結(jié)尾的單數(shù)名詞加“'”

4.合成名詞在最后一個(gè)詞上加“s”

【金牌重點(diǎn)】：除用于有生命的人外，“'s”格還可用于度量衡、地域、天體及一些習(xí)語(yǔ)中：

5.雙重所有格：
如果被修飾的名詞前有不定冠詞、不定代詞、指示代詞、疑問(wèn)代詞修飾。則要采用雙重所有格。
a friend of mine (名詞性物主代詞)
a child of hers
the love poems of your sister's
注意區(qū)別：
1） a portrait of her mother 她母親的畫(huà)像(畫(huà)中人)
2） a portrait of her mother's 她母親擁有的畫(huà)像中的一幅(不一定是她母親的畫(huà)像)
