Apostrophes

Apostrophes can be used to show that something belongs to someone or something in some way. When apostrophes are added to singular nouns to show possession add 's to the end of the noun like this:


	the cat's paws			Joe's car

	Mary's apple			the child's toy

When adding an apostrophe to a plural noun that ends with s, you just add the apostrophe, like this:

	the cats' toys			the pigs' slop

	the boys' game			the girls' grades

There are also irregular plurals, like the word children, to which you add apostrophe-s as you would with a singular noun.
