⇒⇒  Genitive case / possessive >>> usado para demonstrar posse de algo. Usamos o apóstrofe (') + ''s'' em quem possui algo.

Exemplos:

Maria's significa ''da Maria''

A professora da minha filha.  >> My daughter's teacher.

My daughter's significa ''da minha filha''.

Principais regras:

→→  Acrescenta-se apóstrofe + s quando o substantivo for singular

Exemplos:

O pai da Helen. >> Helen's father.

O carro do John. >> John's car.

→→  Se o substantivo terminar em ''S'' (plural ou não) , acrescenta-se apenas o apóstrofe

Exemplos:

O pai das meninas. >> The girls' father.

O professor dos meus filhos. >> My kids' teacher.

 

→→  Para nomes terminados em "s", há duas opções: acrescenta apóstrofe + ''s'' ou apenas o apóstrofe. A primeira opção é a mais comum.

Carlos’ parents. > Os pais do Carlos.

Carlos’s parents.

 

These are Lucas’s sisters. > Essas são as irmãs do Lucas.
