6 Prepositions

6.4 Prepositions in connection with ownership

In connection with ownership relations we normally add the ending -s to the noun (see 2.6 Nouns in the genitive).

Kjolens farve er rød. The colour of the dress is red.

We may also use the preposition på.

Farven på kjolen er rød. The colour of the dress is red.
