a friend of john or a friend of john's?

我忽然不确定了，我记得GMAT OG或者其他什么地方看到过 a friend of john's是错误的应该是a friend of john，可是我从来就没听过哪个美国人说过a friend of john呀，而且是a friend of mine又不是a friend of me，好迷惑啊，到底哪种才是符合GMAT标准的对呢？大家请指教

GMAT出現XXX's這種句型的似乎很少會是對的....

还是属于所有格重复，应该~

a friend of john's

这个形式肯定是错的，商业英文和日常用于还是有一定区别的

正常用语是 afriend of john‘s 好像是但是gmat里这种双重所有格是错的

基本上看下来大家都认同John's是错的，个么我记住啦，尽管考完了我还是会说a friend of John's呵呵呵

"friend of john's" is 100% incorrect - it's redundant. "friend of John" is correct.

When you have "of" you don't need the possessive " 's " anymore. 1000%

我明白啦，大家都解释的很清楚

a friend of john or a friend of john's?
