Possessive noun not followed by noun.
So far, all possessive nouns are followed by a noun. But if a noun (for
example, a place of business) is understood, a possessive noun with its
apostrophe and s is not followed by a noun if the meaning is clear.
Examples:
o He went to the barber's to have his hair cut.
o She was at the butcher's when I called her.
o His pet dog’s tail is shorter than his cat’s.
o I met her queuing at Long and Short’s this morning.
o His stomach is bloated from excessive drinking, but his brother’s is flat.

Uncommon demonstrative pronouns: none, such, neither.
None is used to show not one of a group of people or things. Such is used to refer to
someone or something specified or implied. Neither is used to mean not the one and not
the other of two people or things.
Examples:
None can be used as singular and plural demonstrative pronouns. Singular: The seller said that
none of that type is available. Plural: She was talking about the world coming to an end, but none
of us were listening. (None is plural because us is plural.)
Such can be used as singular and plural demonstrative pronouns. Singular: If such is the way she
explains things, the children will find it difficult to understand. (Such is singular because way is
singular.) Plural: Such are the things we need to bring along for the trip to study the rocky
landscape. (Such is plural because things is plural.)
Neither is always a singular pronoun and requires a singular verb. Singular: Neither of the parents
believes a word of what he said.

The parakeet is a bird from the parrot family. They are dear little birds,
which come in different colors. There are those with white heads and those
with yellow heads, and these are the two different mutations. Those with
white heads are usually blue; on the other hand, those with yellow heads
are usually green. But there are exceptions. There are parakeets with
yellow heads and blue bodies, and vice versa.
Parakeets live to between ten and fifteen years. They are fertile at around
eight months and can breed up to eight times a year. They usually have
between three to eight babies at one time.
These birds are extremely intelligent, and you can teach them to talk.
