Singular possessives are formed by adding an

apostrophe sto the end of a noun. For plural nouns that end in -s, the possessive are formed by adding an

apostrophe after the existing -s; for irregular plural nouns that don't end with -s, the possessive is formed by adding theapostrophes the same as a singular noun.
