  1. POSSESSIVE CASE (’S) Teacher Sandro Romilton / 2013

  2. POSSESSIVE CASE (’S) • A maneira mais comum de se expressar posse em Inglês é usando-se ’S. Em lugar de dizermos, por exemplo: Thehouseof John, dizemos: John’shouse. (A casa de John). Coloca-se apóstrofo s(’s) após o possuidor. A coisa possuída vem imediatamente após. Exemplos: I’m going to my friend’s house. (Vou à casa do meu amigo) This is Mr. Silva’s office. (Este é o escritório de Mr. Silva)

  3. POSSESSIVE CASE (’S) • Quando o possuidor estiver no plural formado pelo acréscimo de: -S (ex: boys) ou -ES (ex: secretaries), coloca-se apenas o apóstrofo após o possuidor. Examples: The boys’ shirts are near their toys. The secretaries’ books are on the table. The party will be at the Smiths’ place tomorrow.

  5. POSSESSIVE CASE (’S) • Quando houver vários possuidores e a coisa possuída for comum a todos, o ’s será colocado após o último possuidor. Examples: Charles and Mary’s parents are inviting you to go to their house. Peter and Charles’s house is near their school. • Entretanto, se cada um dos elementos possuírem uma coisa em separado, coloca-se ‘s após cada um deles.Examples: Paul’s and Henry’s cars are at the garage. Mr. Smith’s and Mr. Brown’s offices are near their houses.

  6. POSSESSIVE CASE (’S) • Look at the family tree. Write sentences about the people in there.

  7. POSSESSIVE CASE (’S) • O caso possessivo com ’s é também usado junto a nomes de igrejas, lojas, residências ou palavras semelhantes facilmente subentendidas, as quais são OMITIDAS. Exemplos: • I’m going to the dentist’s.(Eu vou ao dentista, isto é, ao consultório dentário – a palavra omitida foi “office”) • I visited St. Patrick’s in New York.(Eu visitei a catedral de São Patrício em Nova York – a palavra omitida foi “cathedral”) • They went to Macy’s to buy some gifts.(Eles foram à Macy’s comprar alguns presentes – a palavra omitida foi “store”)

  8. POSSESSIVE CASE (’S) • O caso possessivo também aparece em certas construções evitando repetição. Thathouse is Albert’s.(= Albert’shouse) (Aquela casa é do Albert) Thatpainting is Michelangelo’s.

  11. “The Last Day of School” On the last day of school, the children brought gifts for their teacher. The florist’s sonbrought the teacher a bouquet of flowers. The candy-store owner’s daughtergave the teacher a pretty box of candy. Then the liquor-store owner’s sonbrought up a big, heavy box. The teacher lifted it up and noticed that it was leaking a little bit. She touched a drop of the liquid with her finger and tasted it. “Is it wine?” she guessed. “No.”, the boy replied. She tasted another drop and asked, “Champagne?” “No.”, said the little boy... “I give up.”, she said. “What is it?” The boy replied, “It’s a PUPPY!” THE END!!! teachersandro@yahoo.com.br
