Seguro en algún momento dijimos The house of my father (no tan común), en lugar de My father’s house (correcto). No te preocupes, todos nos confundimos con esta palabra al principio.

Cuándo empleamos of y cuando 's (apóstrofe + s)

's: para objetos animados. Personas, animales, países, etc. Todo aquello que se considere una entidad independiente.

Por ejemplo:

  • Gabriel’s shirt is clean. / La camisa de Gabriel está limpia.
  • The dog’s ears are dirty. / Las orejas del perro están sucias.
  • Ecuador’s elections will be held next year. / Las elecciones en Ecuador se celebrarán el próximo año.

Por ejemplo:

  • The color of my hair is brown. / El color de mi pelo es castaño.
  • The start of the lesson was hard. / El comienzo de la lección fue duro.
  • This chair is the property of the school. / Esta silla es propiedad de la escuela.

Ejercicio usando of para expresar posesión
