a Clifford friend

问题描述:

a Clifford friend

一个克利福德(人名)的朋友如果是这样的话,为什么不是Clifford‘s friend正常是这样,你这出自什么地方?这种用法挺特别,是散文或者古典文学吗?这里的Clifford相当于名词修饰名词的情况。是一本现代的书,前后文是这样的:Eisenhower told Democratic political operative George E. Allen, a Clifford friend, that he had been "misinformed and mistaken about this young man. He's one of the ablest brightest minds I've ever come across."这里就是名词修饰名词的情况好,谢谢
