substantival การใช้

• As the last example shows, the qualifying expression may be a substantival sentence rather than a noun or noun group.
• Also, the first set may be called " adjectival " and the second set " substantival " possessive pronouns.
• "This ending was selected in "'Ido "'( with omission of the substantival ending of the singular, thus homi from homo man ), the reason being twofold : a vocalic ending was wanted in order to make the addition of the ( Esp ) accusative-n possible, and on the other hand the s-endings were used as in Esp for the verb ."
• Substantival possessive pronouns are used on their own and cannot be used to describe a noun, playing the role of noun phrases, so " mine " may stand for " my cat ", " my sister ", " my things ", etc . In some languages these may require articles or other determiners, as the French " le mien " etc . In English, the "-' s " possessives formed from nouns or noun phrases can be used in the same way; " the president's " may stand for " the president's office ", " the president's policies ", etc ., as determined by the context.
