Answer:

Use an apostrophe in the possessive form of a noun to indicate ownership. To

show

ownership, add apostrophe + s to the end of a word, with one exception: To show

ownership with a plural noun already ending in s add only the apostrophe.

 All singular nouns show possession by adding apostrophe + s ('s), including those

that already end in s.

Examples:

A boy's shirt is under the chair.

The child's toy was on the shelf.

Lois's book is fascinating.

The bus's door was still open
