Абсолютное употребление притяжательного падежа

 

Параллельно конструкции типа a friend of mine су­ществует и выражение типа a boy of my friend's с абсо­лютной формой притяжательного падежа. Эта конструкция употребляется так же, как и конструкция a friend of mine, и имеет значение «один из сыновей моего друга».

Перед существительным, определяемым притяжательным падежом в абсолютной форме, ставит­ся неопределенный артикль или указательное местоимение.

Существительное в притяжательном падеже может употребляться в абсолютной форме, т. е. без последую­щего существительного, и в том случае, когда притяжа­тельный падеж обозначает местожительство, жилище определенного лица или название предприятия, мага­зина и т. д.:

Ex.: She is at her grandmother's. Она у бабушки.

Не is at the baker's round the corner. Он в булочной за углом.

АРТИКЛЬ

The Use of Articles

 

Артикль - это служебное слово, определяющее существительное. В английском языке два артикля: неопределенный (a/an) и определенный (the).

1. Неопределенный артикль а или an (если слово начинается с гласной) употребляется только с исчисляемыми существительными в единственном числе:

1) когда мы говорим о неопределенной вещи:

Ex.: I can't find a taxi. - Я не могу найти такси.

В том случае, если мы говорим о неисчисляемых существительных, либо о множественном числе исчисляемых, то используется some:

Ex.: Give me some water, please. There are some taxis at the taxi rank;

2) Когда предмет нам заранее не известен, при первом упоминании используется неопределенный артикль, а при последующем упоминании уже определенный the:

Ex.: I have got a car. The car is red;

3) после глаголов to have и to be:

Ex.: I have got a pen. She is a teacher;

4) в качестве (вместо) слова «per»:

Ex.: He works five days a week. – Он работает 5 дней в неделю;

5) когда мы говорим о представителе класса предметов:

Ex.: An Afri­can elephant has larger ears than an Indian elephant.

2. Определенный артикль the используется в следующих случаях:

1) с существительными, которые нам известны, которые выделяются из ряда вещей. Когда мы говорим о чем-то конкретном. Такое часто происходит при повторном упоминании:

Ex.: Bob has got a car and a bike. The car is green and the bike is blue;

2) с уникальными существительными: the sun, the Earth, the Moon, the Universe;

3) с названиями газет (the Guardian), кинотеатров (the Odeon), театров (the Empire), музеев (the Louvre), кораблей (the Marie Celeste), организаций (the United Nations);

4) с названиями рек (the Thames); с группами островов (the Seychelles); с массивами гор (the Alps); с пустынями (the Sahara); с океанами (the Atlantic); с каналами (the Panama canal); странами, если они включают в себя слова типа States, Kingdom, Republic (the UK); с частями света (the North/East/South/West);

5)с именами музыкальных инструментов и танцев: the guitar, the salsa;

6) с названиями семей (напр. the Browns) и национальностями, оканчивающимися на -sh, -ch, или -ese (the French). В ином случае можно говорить и с the и без (the Egyptians/Egyptians);

7) со званиями: the Queen, the President. HO: Queen Victoria (т.е. если после звания указано имя собственное определенный артикль не употребляется);

8) с превосходной степенью прилагательных: the best film – самый лучший фильм. НО: Most people enjoy goingto the cinema;

9) со словами day, morning, afternoon и evening:

Ex.: It was early in the morning when they left the house. HO: at night, at noon, at midnight, by day/night;

10) с историческими периодами: the last Ice Age, the Vietnam war. НО: World War II;

11) со словами only, last и first (если они используются в качестве прилагательных):

Ex.: She was the only one who didn't come.

3. Определенный артикль the не употребляется (или ещё говорят что употребляется «нулевой артикль»):

1) с неисчисляемыми и множественными существительными, когда мы говорим о чем-то в общем смысле этого слова:

Ex.: Planes are a safe means of transport. – Самолеты – безопасный вид транспорта.

Ex.: Tea is a very popular drink. – Чай – очень популярный напиток;

2) с именами собственными:

Ex.: Ann works as a librarian;

3) с названиями игр, днями недели, месяцами, праздниками, цветами, напитками и едой:

Ex.: We had dinner with the Smiths on Friday. – Мы ужинаем со Смитами в пятницу;

НО: если существительные breakfast, lunch, dinner, supper выделяются с помощью ограничительного определения или ситуации, а также если речь идет о качестве пищи, они употребляются с определенным артиклем:

Ex.: The dinner was delicious.

Если эти существительные определяются описательными определениями, они употребляются с неопределенным артиклем:

Ex.: They gave us a delicious dinner.

4) с языками:

Ex.: Bob speaks Polish, French and English fluently.

Но если перед названием языка используется слово language, то употребляется определенный артикль:

Ex.: The French language is spoken in parts of Canada;

5) с названиями стран, которые не включают в себя слова State, Kingdom или Republic: Germany, India, Australia. Исключения: the Netherlands, the Gambia, the Vatican, the Congo; с названиями отдельных горных вершин (Everest), отдельных островов (Sakhalin, Исключение: the Crimea), городов (Rostov-on-Don, Moscow), континентов (Asia, Europe);

6) с названиями улиц (Oxford street, Penny Lane), площадей (Trafalgar Square), мостов (London Bridge), университетов (Southern Federal University).

4. Артикль не употребляется, если перед существи­тельным стоит притяжательное или указатель­ное местоимение, другое существительное в притяжательном падеже, количественное числи­тельное или отрицание "nо" (не "not").
