An apostrophe followed by the letter "s" ('s) is used to show possession or indicate that something belongs to someone. For example, "Sarah's car" means the car belongs to Sarah. On the other hand, when an s is followed by an apostrophe (s'), it is used to show possession for plural nouns that already end in s. For example, "the students' project" means the project belongs to the students.
