Chhose the correct example of the singular possessive case
1) women's club
2) audiences' reaction
3) who's job
4) king' right
I choose #4, because women is already plural and so is audiences, and it should be whose job.
Check your question again. There isn't a correct answer among those ( unless you made a mistake in typing.)
Exact question - Which one of the following is a correct example of the singular possessive case?
1) women's club
2) audiences' reation
3) who's job
4) king's right
4) Kings rights
"king's right" is correct -- the only singular possessive in the list.
Number 4.
The correct example of the singular possessive case is not #4, but actually #3. The correct example is "whose job." Here's an explanation of why:
In the singular possessive case, we use an apostrophe followed by an "s" ('s) to indicate possession. This is true for nouns in both singular and plural form, with the exception of plural nouns that already end in "s."
Let's go through each option:
1) "Women's club" is incorrect because "women" is a plural noun, so the correct possessive form should be "women's club," with an apostrophe before the "s."
2) "Audiences' reaction" is incorrect as well because "audiences" is also a plural noun. The correct possessive form should be "audience's reaction," with an apostrophe before the "s."
3) "Who's job" is incorrect. "Who's" is actually a contraction of "who is" and not the possessive form. The correct possessive form should be "whose job."
4) "King' right" is incorrect because "king" should have an apostrophe followed by an "s" ('s) to show possession. Therefore, it should be "king's right."
So, the correct example of the singular possessive case is "whose job."
