我一直不明白的英文句子?????

Question

I do not mind her going to Ruth's party but she is not to be back late.
我知道mind的後面要接動名詞
那為何上句要用"her"這個代名詞ㄋ
感覺好像"她的去...."
很奇怪ㄝ

Answer 1

I do not mind her going to Ruth's party but she is not to be back late.
本句的her的問題是這樣子的。
mind有兩種結構，換句話說，本句還有另一種寫法。
I do not mind if she goes to Ruth's party but she is not be be back late.
這裡的if是連接詞，所以mind後面就是加了名詞子句 。
可以把這名詞子句變成名詞片語。就是問題這一句了。
所以
I do not mind her going to Ruth's party but she is not to be back late.
就是
I do not mind if she goes to Ruth's party but she is not be be back late.
變來的
再說
當子句變成動名詞片語時，必須注意的是
動詞改成動名詞 goes --- going
主詞必須用所有格 she --- her
所以這裡的her 是所有格，不是受格。
最後去掉連接詞 if
就形成了
