If a name ends with an "s" the apostrophe can go at the end of the word
Example:
I found James' ball in my backyard again.
Also, to show that a plural noun (a group) possesses one thing
Example:
Four teachers share an office. The teachers' office.
One teacher has an office. The teacher's office.
An apostrophe is used after the last letter in a sentence when indicating possession or contraction. For example, "The dog's toy" indicates possession, while "It's a beautiful day" is a contraction for "It is."
The mark (') used to indicate the omission of one or more letters from a printed word. For example the apostrophe in the word Don't is used to replace the o in do not.
Yes, in the phrase "last year's party," you should use an apostrophe to show possession. The apostrophe indicates that the party belongs to last year.
To show possession after the letter z, add an apostrophe and the letter s (z's). For pluralizing a word that ends in z, add an apostrophe before the s without another s (z').
No, you do not need to use an apostrophe in the sentence "I have two cousins." Apostrophes are typically used to show possession or to indicate missing letters in contractions.
No, you do not need an apostrophe in that sentence. "Cousins" is used as a plural noun, not a possessive, so no apostrophe is required.
Using an apostrophe after the last s in a word shows possession. The snakes' eggs were laid in a nest.
No, Larpenteurs is just plural, not possessive.
Apostrophe is placed after the letter z in names ending in this letter. Example: Mr. Sanchez' office or Mr. Sanchez's office
Yes, you can use an apostrophe s to show possession even if the name ends in Z.
Yes. 'Its' in that sentence is short for 'it is' so it should have an apostrophe.
No, you do not need to use an apostrophe in the sentence "I have two cousins." Apostrophes are typically used to show possession or to indicate missing letters in contractions.
example:Death,where is thy sting?
The apostrophe in the word Billy's means Billy's ownership of something.
To show possession after the letter z, add an apostrophe and the letter s (z's). For pluralizing a word that ends in z, add an apostrophe before the s without another s (z').
There are three types of apostrophe. The possessive apostrophe, to show that a letter is missing and to highlight a word or phrase, eg 'hasn't', doesn't', 'can't'. The possessive apostrophe would be used in a sentence such as 'The student's work was of a high standard' meaning the work of the student. However if you are using the word students in the plural form, it would be written 'students' work'.
Use an apostrophe s to indicate possession.Example:Gibson's guitar strings broke last night.
Meet me in the engineer's office.
Either form is generally accepted, but using an apostrophe s simplifies pronunciation and can help avoid confusion, especially in written communication. For example, "Martinez's" is more straightforward than "Martinez'." Ultimately, consistency is key.
