Well done Masa! Super job!
ReplyDeleteHow about the "John's" in the first one? What do you think it is? Tough question :Phil
That's a good question, Phil. I studied English grammar in English. "John's" is classified into noun. Technically speaking, it is classified into genitive or possessive case, right?
ReplyDeleteThat's right Masa! Fantastic!
