Among the sentences presented above, the one with the fixed sentence by following the apostrophe rule. Cats' personalities and dogs' personalities are often considered calming to humans.

<em>Cat</em><em>s'</em><em> personalities and dog</em><em>s'</em><em> personalities are often considered calming to humans. </em>This is the only sentence that has applied the apostrophe rule correctly,

The bold type letters indicate the presence of the apostrophe used to indincate possession. The plural nouns are in the genitive case and when the plural finishes in "s", the apostrophe is put above the word.

These sentences have not applied the rule correctly:

-Cats personalities and dogs personalities are often considered calming to humans. ( Right version: Cats' personalities and dogs' personalities are often considered calming to humans)

-Cat's personalities and dog's personalities are often considered calming to humans. ( Right version: My Cat's personality and my dog's personality are often considered calming to me. If the noun is in the singular, this refers to a particular case. Plural nouns are used to make generalizations).

-Cats personalities and dogs personalities are often considered calming to human's. ( Right version: Cats' personalities and dogs' personalities are often considered calming to humans. <em>Humans</em> is a noun in the plural. It is in the nominative case , not in the genitive case. It is not indicating possession.)

-Cats' personalities and dogs' personalities are often considered calming to humans'. ( Right version: Cats' personalities and dogs' personalities are often considered calming to humans. Humans must not carry the apostrophe because it is in the nominative case.)

What was prophesied over the life of Banquo?Macbeth? Act 1 scene 3
MakcuM [25]
<span>Ross arrives and announces that Macbeth is to be the new Thane of Cawdor, thus confirming the first prophecy of the Witches. Banquo and Macbeth are struck dumb for the second time, but now Shakespeare contrasts their responses. Banquo is aware of the possibility that the prophecies may have been the work of supernatural dark forces, as exemplified in his lines "What? Can the Devil speak true?" (108) and "oftentimes, to win us to our harm, / The instruments of Darkness tell us truths . . . — (only) to betray us" (123-125). Macbeth is more ambiguous. His speech is full of what will now become his trademark — questioning, doubting, weighing up, and seeking to justify: "This supernatural soliciting / Cannot be ill; cannot be good" (130-131).</span>
