Possessive nouns are alphabetized exactly the same as any nouns. Examples:
The possessive nouns in the sentence are:Frank'sSue'sThe pronoun in the sentence is 'his', a possessive adjective describing the noun 'house'.
The singular possessive form is mother's.The plural possessive form is mothers'.
Only nouns and pronouns have possessive forms. The word 'write' is a verb.
In possessive nouns and contractions.
Omit the apostrophe then alphabetize it.
Possessive nouns and possessive pronouns always function as adjectives, as they modify nouns to show ownership or possession.
The possessive nouns in the sentence are:Frank'sSue'sThe pronoun in the sentence is 'his', a possessive adjective describing the noun 'house'.
Apostrophes are use in possessive nouns and contraction. Susan's purse, Joey's bike, and bird's wing are examples of possessive nouns. Contractions are words such as can't (cannot), I'd (I would), and don't (do not).

Possessive nouns and possessive pronouns both show ownership or possession of something. Possessive nouns show that something belongs to a noun, whereas possessive pronouns replace a noun to show possession. They both indicate who or what owns or has something.
Examples of three possessive nouns are:my mother's carthe city's skylinethe dog's collar
In English, possessive pronouns, like adjectives, usually come before the nouns that they modify.
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.
Possessive nouns (but not possessive pronouns) use apostrophes; therefore, "brother's" is possessive. "Brothers" is plural.
Possessive nouns can function as both adjectives and pronouns. As adjectives, they modify nouns by showing ownership or possession (e.g., "John's car"). As pronouns, they stand in for nouns to show possession (e.g., "This book is mine").
