Possessives:
To indicate possession in English, you will
use either the preposition of or the -'s form. The latter is used
much more frequently in informal English.
--This
is the office of the attorney.
-->This is the attorney's office.
--Here
is the desk of Mr. Young.
-->Here is Mr. Young's desk.
--I
know the family of Mrs. Jones.
-->I know Mrs. Jones's family.
Note
the change in word order when the -'s form is used. The owner
is listed first, followed by the thing owned.
