The possessive singular ending of all English nouns is's, regardless of spelling. Singular nouns that end in s take 's in the possessive, for example class: class's and James: James's. Words that end in an s sound gain a syllable in the possessive singular, and for some exalted names this has an awkward sound. For them we use the prepositional construction with of. For example we say the Law of Moses rather than Moses's Law, or the Teaching of Jesus instead of Jesus's Teaching.
The possessive plural ending of all English nouns that take s in the plural is the apostrophe ' alone. For example The two cities' leaders agreed on a compromise. This is only for the plurals ending in s. It is incorrect to use the apostrophe alone for the possessive of any singular word ending in s.
The possessive plural ending of all English nouns that do not take s in the plural is 's. For example the children's hour or Women's Lib
To form possessive nouns, add an apostrophe and the letter "s" ('s) to the end of a singular noun, or just an apostrophe after a plural noun. For example, "The book belonging to Sarah" becomes "Sarah's book," and "The books of the students" becomes "the students' books."
The rule for forming the possessive case of nouns and indefinite pronouns is to add an apostrophe and the letter "s" ('s) to the noun or pronoun. For plural nouns ending in "s," you only need to add an apostrophe. Example: The cat's tail; the children's toys; someone's phone.
The two rules for forming possessive nouns are adding an apostrophe followed by an "s" to singular nouns (e.g. the dog's bone) and adding an apostrophe after the "s" for plural nouns that already end in "s" (e.g. the dogs' bones).
Possessive nouns and possessive pronouns always function as adjectives, as they modify nouns to show ownership or possession.
Possessive nouns show ownership or possession of something by another noun. They do not directly indicate a relationship between nouns and adjectives. Adjectives describe or modify nouns, while possessive nouns indicate ownership of the noun being modified.
Forming possessive nouns or pronouns helps indicate ownership or relationship between the noun and something else. This can help clarify meaning or show possession in a sentence. It also adds specificity and precision to language.
The plural is the Rusches. Use the rules for forming plural nouns to make a proper noun plural.
Plural possessive nouns show ownership by more than one person or thing. They are formed by adding an apostrophe after the 's' at the end of a plural noun. For example, "dogs' beds" shows that multiple dogs own the beds.
