Question

Type the singular possessive form of this noun.

Answer 1

In order to create the possessive form of a noun you should add 's. If the noun ends in s then you have two options: either you add 's like you do with any other singular noun or you just add an apostrophe ' at the end of the noun.

boy-boy's

soldier-soldier's

lady-lady's

Jones-Jones's OR Jones'

Princess- Princess's OR Princess'

Shepherd- Shepherd's

child- child's

Mr. Dicken- Mr. Dicken's

man- man's

kerry- kerry's

If the noun is in plural and ends in s then you will just add an apostrophe ' at the end. If it is in plural but it doesn't end in s then you should add 's.

kerry-kerries'

wives- wives'

woman- women's

policeman- policemen's

boxes-boxes'

oxen-oxen's

salesman-salesmen's

sopranos-sopranos'

deer-deers'

toys-toys'

empresses-empresses'
