Accepted Answer

Перевод задания: Выберите правильное предложение, в котором существительное употреблено в притяжательном падеже.

Correct answer: A) Where were you last at the dentist's? The dentist's is a possessive form used elliptically to mean the dentist's office or surgery. In B, C, D and E, the apostrophe marks a contraction.

Перевод: Где вы были в последний раз у стоматолога? Вариант A верен: the dentist's — притяжательная форма с пропущенным словом, подразумевается кабинет стоматолога. В вариантах B, C, D и E апостроф обозначает сокращение.
