Forming Possessives of Nouns

 

Once you've determined whether you need to make a possessive, follow these rules to create one.

 

* add 's to the singular form of the word (even if it ends in -s):

 

the owner's car

James's hat (James' hat is also acceptable. For plural, proper nouns that are possessive, use an apostrophe after the 's': "The Eggles' presentation was good." The Eggles are a husband and wife consultant team.)
