"Theres" isn't actually a word. "There's" is a word, and is a contraction of "There is". "Theres" must have an apostrophe to mean anything at all in the English language.
When there is a plural possesive. Example: All the farmers' feilds were attacked by crows.
Oh, dude, you're really testing my brain cells here. The 2-letter word with an apostrophe is "o'clock." Like, it's just a fancy way of saying the time without actually saying the numbers. So, next time someone asks you for the time, hit 'em with that "it's five o'clock" and watch them be all impressed and stuff.
An apostrophe used after the letter S at the end of the word generally means it is a plural possessive, such as "cats' meow" which is basically referring the meow to all of the cats (plural).Sometimes, however, some words will end in an S without being a plural, such as names, but the apostrophe still indicates that it is possessive. For example "James' notebook" which is saying that the notebook belongs to a singular James.
The sign of the possessive of all English plurals ending in s is a final apostrophe: cities'
It all depends on how you are using the word city, but an apostrophe can be used appropriately like this: City's Cities'
"Theres" isn't actually a word. "There's" is a word, and is a contraction of "There is". "Theres" must have an apostrophe to mean anything at all in the English language.
An apostrophe is needed: the bosses' profits = the profits of all the bosses the boss's profits = the profits of the boss When the noun is plural, the apostrophe goes at the end of the word. When the noun is singular, the apostrophe goes after the word, before the s. Hope this helps.
No, there is no apostrophe after the 's' in "Grandparents Day." The term is already possessive with the 's' indicating that the day is dedicated to all grandparents.
The term "Veterans Day" is spelled without an apostrophe to indicate that the day is a day for honoring all veterans, not just one specific veteran or a possession or attribute belonging to veterans. The absence of the apostrophe sets it apart from possessive forms like "Veteran's Day" or "Veterans' Day."
You don't need an apostrophe in that sentence. Studentsis a plural word, not a possessive.
A word that has an apostrophe is called a contraction. Contractions are created by combining two words and replacing missing letters with an apostrophe. Examples include "can't" (cannot) and "I'm" (I am).
The word 'it' is singular and has no plural. Therefore it cannot have a plural possessive form.However, the possessive form of it is its, without an apostrophe. It is commonly written incorrectly, with an apostrophe. It's means it is or it has. Like all possessive pronouns, there is no apostrophe (e.g. hers, his, theirs)
all saints eve
The word Halloween or Hallowe'en dates to about 1745 and is of Christian origin. The word "Hallowe'en" means "Saints' evening". It comes from a Scottish term for All Hallows' Eve (the evening before All Hallows' Day).
all saints day
The apostrophe is not needed because deer is a singular and plural word. The sentence should read 'These deer antlers all have eight points.'
