You can also think of the phrase as replacing the name of the subject of the sentence that we’re trying to say has possession of something. Like a pronoun. So,
this individual I spotted’s face
Could be better conceptualized as:
“this individual I spotted” + 's face, or “his” face
Thats actually a good help for me as a german because some people do talk like that. They would say something like “That is peter his car” Instead of “That is peter’s car” (But in german you would skip the ’ )
Pretty interesting read for a non native speaker, i got to say. Thanks.
Pretty interesting read for a native speaker, even.
