own 通常与形容词性物主代词连用。如:
I’d love to have my own room. 我喜欢有一个自己的房间。
She can’t even write her own name. 她连自己的名字都不会写。
You are old enough to earn your own living. 你已经到能自食其力的年龄了。
由于形容词性物主代词在本质上与所有格相似,请问 own 可以与名词所有格连用吗?
▲名词所有格后面接own是可以的。如:
Professor Wilson’s own answer may be unacceptable. ——摘自Collins Cobuild English Grammar
The professor’s own answer may be unacceptable.——摘自Collins Cobuild Active English Grammar
The drug mimics the action of the body’s own chemicals.——摘自Longman Dictionary of American English
