Explanation:
I am with u on this question.
Answer:
Possessive case of a plural noun ending in -s:
- I didn't have the time to wash the girls' dresses.
Possessive case of a plural noun not ending in -s:
- People's manners have greatly improved after the workshop on empathy.
Explanation:
The possessive case, also known as the genitive case, usually consists in the addition of 's to the ending of a noun to indicate that that noun is the possessor of something. For example: Sheila's books. / Erica's mother. / John's letters.
<u>When the noun already ends in -s in its plural form, all we need to do is add the apostrophe to indicate the possessive case:</u>
- I didn't have the time to wash the girls' dresses.
<u>When the noun has a plural form that does not end in -s, we need to add 's just like we would to its singular form:</u>
- People's manners have greatly improved after the workshop on empathy.

This quote is said by Rainsford, a character from The Most Dangerous Game written by Richard Connell. </span>
The negro artist and the racial mountain was written in response to "The Negro Art Hokum" written by George S. Schyler. It was published on June 16, 1926 and was printed in “The Nation.” The word “hokum” means general nonsense. It says that the negro art movement was a nonsense and had no specific role to play on. He wanted to remove the stereotypes related to the negro art and literature which the society wanted to build.
