wristwatches
twelve 後須接複數名詞 wristwatches。wristwatch 是單數;wristwatch's 與 wristwatches' 是所有格,此處沒有可讓所有格修飾或省略代替的名詞,不能表示盤點的十二支手錶。
同義改寫
The presenter checked her wristwatch before starting the final slide. → The presenter checked the watch on her wrist before starting the final slide.
the watch on her wrist 明確指戴在手腕上的錶,保留 wristwatch 的意思。
Someone left a wristwatch beside the printer. → Someone left a watch designed to be worn on the wrist beside the printer.
以完整描述替換 wristwatch,仍指遺留在印表機旁的手錶,未表示當時有人戴著它。
