Question

In 1-2 sentences, explain how to use an apostrophe to show possession for singular and plural nouns and to form contractions. (2 points)

Answer 1

Use an apostrophe +"s" ('s) to show that one person/thing owns or is a member of something.

Use an apostrophe after the "s" (s') at the end of a plural noun to show possession.
If a plural noun doesn't end in "s," add an apostrophe + "s" to create the possessive form.
