Catta 10 發表於 January 6, 2008 檢舉 Share 發表於 January 6, 2008 [抓頭]boss's是比較常見的形式。不過boss'也不能算錯。所以其實兩種都可以。 鏈接文章 分享到其他網站
MikiRei 10 發表於 January 6, 2008 檢舉 Share 發表於 January 6, 2008 is吧?No, it is "are". He's talking about two things, hence, plural.I tend to think boss' is correct. Probably doesn't make a difference either way. I choose boss' for consistency sake. 鏈接文章 分享到其他網站
damoko 10 發表於 January 6, 2008 檢舉 Share 發表於 January 6, 2008 is吧?From http://www.usingenglish.com/forum/ask-teacher/3297-either-either.htmlWhen "either" or "neither" is used as a pronoun, this same sense of being singualr should continue. However, when the pronoun is followed by a prepositional phrase with a plural object, some speakers/writers will switch to a plural verb. This practice is more common with "neither" for some reason.Either of the options was considered to be an improvement.Neither of the men was chosen.Some will use "Neither of the men were chosen" because there are two men. But "neither" treats the two men as one or the other, not both.No, it is "are". He's talking about two things, hence, pluralErr - can we still use is here? 鏈接文章 分享到其他網站

大張 11 發表於 January 16, 2008 檢舉 Share 發表於 January 16, 2008 I agree that when "either" is used the verb should be singular, because it refers to the concept "one of the two." And I think both boss' and boss's are OK. I have seen both of these two forms of genitives before. 鏈接文章 分享到其他網站
