Dear Teachers,
I am never sure about the proper use of the preposition "of" to link two nouns.
Here I provide few examples:
Example 1)
"... to measure the traffic of calls." (It sounds better to me)
"... to measure traffic calls" (I am not sure if it is correct)
Example 2)
"She has the face of an angel"
"She has an angel face" (They both sound correct to me)
Is there a rule? Usually I use "my instinct", but I know is not always correct.
Thank you in advance
