Por ejemplo, si Kit tiene un amigo, decimos <span data-no-translation>Kit&#8217;s friend<\/span>. Si un perro tiene un juguete, decimos <span data-no-translation>the dog&#8217;s toy<\/span>. A\u00f1adimos <span data-no-translation>&#8216;s<\/span> al final de un sustantivo singular (una palabra que se refiere a una persona, un animal o una cosa).
