? ? ? ?1)物主代詞既有表示所屬的作用又有指代作用,例如:

     John had cut his finger; apparently there was a broken glass on his desk.

    約翰割破了手指,顯而易見(jiàn),他桌子上有個(gè)破玻璃杯。

    物主代詞有形容詞性(my, your等)和名詞性(mine, yours等)兩種,形容詞性的物主代詞屬于限定詞。

    名詞性的物主代詞在用法上相當(dāng)于省略了中心名詞的 --'s屬格結(jié)構(gòu),例如:

     Jack's cap  意為   The cap is Jack's.

     His cap   意為   The cap is his.

   2) 名詞性物主代詞的句法功能

    a. 作主語(yǔ),例如:

     May I use your pen? Yours works better.

     我可以用一用你的鋼筆嗎? 你的比我的好用。

    b. 作賓語(yǔ),例如:

     I love my motherland as much as you love yours.

     我愛(ài)我的祖國(guó)就像你愛(ài)你的祖國(guó)一樣深。 

    c. 作介詞賓語(yǔ),例如:

     Your should interpret what I said in my sense of the word, not in yours.

     你應(yīng)當(dāng)按我所用的詞義去解釋我說(shuō)的話(huà),而不能按你自己的意義去解釋。

    d. 作主語(yǔ)補(bǔ)語(yǔ),例如:

      The life I have is yours. It's yours. It's yours. 我的生命屬于你,屬于你,屬于你。
