Quick question about possessive construction.

StellaMartensitica
Hi everyone, the question is:

With regard to the two sentences:

I) Professor's Layton puzzles are tough.
II) Professor Layton's puzzles are tough.

Which of them is the right one? Or are both of them right?
(Quite of course, I am not referring to the quality of Layton's puzzles, but to the position of the " 's " in the sentence).


Feel free to correct any mistakes in the message as well. Bye.

Yes, it is definetely the second one. The first one seems to imply that Layton is an adjective referring to the puzzles.

All in all, not a puzzling question :P

Also, maybe it's just me, but the phrase quite of course sounds really weird...

Thank you for the answers.

The second. It's obvious, isn't it ?
