possessive nouns
use possessive nouns to show that a noun possesses or has something.
singular possessive noun: belonging to one person or thing. use apostrophe s after the singular noun.
my friends cat; my mothers birthday, the cats ears; the cars wheels
plural possessive noun: belonging to more than one person or thing. use an apostrophe after plural nouns ending in s. use apostrophe s after irregular plural nouns.
my parents car; the twins birthday; the companies agreement; the childrens toys; the mices food; the peoples choice
important note: dont use an apostrophe to make a noun plural or to make a 3rd person singular verb. the apostrophe is only used to show possession or to make a contraction.
