Explain please whether we say"a table leg"or "a table's leg"; it (money )influence or its influence.

Question

Answer

It would depend on the context.

If I'm building a table and there are separate legs which must  be attached, I would say "four table legs".

If the four legs are already attached to the table, I might say "The table's legs are too long."

Its influence - "its" is the possessive of "it" and "influence is in this case a noun.

If I used "influence" as a verb, then it would be"

"It influences much of our life."

Answer

I agree. It depends on the context.
