说成英语应是his father,而不能是 he father;同样地,汉语说“你先生”,说成英语应是your husband,而不能是 you husband。另外,有些在英语中必用的物主代词在汉语中往往无需表达。
own的用法:
为了强调,有时可在物主代词后加上own一词。如:
Mind your own business. 别管闲事。
I saw it with my own eyes. 那是我亲眼看到的。
She had made her own tragedy. 她造成了自己的悲剧。
Her private morality is her own business. 她的个人品德是她自己的事。
