Possession 2: apostrophe, of
A bit of theory
Possessive apostrophe |
We use an apostrophe when we talk about things belonging to people. Singular (’s) This is Jane’s house. That’s my friend’s bike.
Plurals (s’) These are the boys’ desks.
Two words with apostrophe together. Is that Ann’s aunt’s car? = Is this the car that belongs to the aunt of Ann?
Belonging to two people. This is Carol and Tony’s house.
Written notices, no apostrophe. Welcome to Wallsend Boys Club.
Names ending in s. St James’ Park St.James’s Park
• No apostrophe in front of the s of plural words. • No apostrophe in possessive pronouns yours, hers, its, ours, theirs. |
of |
We can use of when we talk about things belonging to things. The roof of the house was damaged.
of is not always necessary I saw this dress in the shop window.
own and belong I own this bike. Do you own this bike? This bike belongs to me. Does this bike belong to you? |
Remember:
’s/s’ (people or animals)
|
of (inanimate things)
|
Note: phrases of place + ’s (at the butcher’s) time/distance expression + ’s/’ (last week’s news, three days’ visit).
Put in any missing apostrophes. In some sentences, no apostrophes are necessary.
