Questions & Answers about watashi no ie no reizouko ni wa chiisai reitouko ga tsuite imasu.

Why are there two の in a row in 私の家の冷蔵庫? Is that okay?

Yes, it’s completely normal. Each の is marking possession or a relationship:

• 私の家 = my house
• 家の冷蔵庫 = the refrigerator of the house / the refrigerator in the house

Putting them together:

• 私の家の冷蔵庫 = the refrigerator in my house

Japanese often chains の like this:
友達の妹の車 = my friend’s younger sister’s car, etc.

So the structure is:

私 (I) + の + 家 (house) + の + 冷蔵庫 (refrigerator)

What’s the difference between 冷蔵庫 and 冷凍庫?

They’re two different appliances/sections:

• 冷蔵庫（れいぞうこ）

  • Literally: cold-store box
  • Meaning: refrigerator, the part that keeps things cool but not frozen.

• 冷凍庫（れいとうこ）

  • Literally: cold-freeze box
  • Meaning: freezer, the part that freezes things.

In modern fridges, 冷凍庫 is usually one compartment of the 冷蔵庫, which is exactly what the sentence is describing.
