An apostrophe (') is used to indicate a possessive noun.
Singular nouns that do not end with -s, add an apostrophe -s ('s) to the end of the word:
apple-> apple's
boy-> boy's
child-> child's
Singular nouns that do end with -s have two accepted ways of forming the possessive:
Add an apostrophe (') after the existing s at the end of the word: boss' Add an apostrophe s ('s) after the existing s at the end of the word: boss's
Plural nouns that do end with -s, add an apostrophe (') after the ending -s:
apples-> apples'
boys-> boys'
bosses-> bosses'
Plural nouns that do not end with -s form the possessive the same as singular nouns that do not end with -s, add an apostrophe -s ('s) to the end of the word:
children-> children's
people-> people's
mice-> mice's
