A plural possessive noun is a noun for two or more people or things that indicates that something in that sentence 'belongs' to that noun.

A plural noun shows possession by adding an apostrophe (') to the end of a plural noun ending with an s, or an apostrophe s ('s) to the end of an irregular plural noun that does not end with an s.

A possessive noun (singular or plural) is used to modify the subject of a sentence or a clause, and the object of a verb or a preposition.

Example sentences for plural possessive nouns:

  • The Browns' children are twins. (children is the subject of the sentence)
  • The party that the Browns' children gave was fun. (children is the subject of the relative clause)
  • We attended the children's party. (party is the direct object of the verb)
  • We brought a gift for the children'sparty. (party is the object of the preposition)
