in 2 sentence, explain how to use an apostrophe to show possession for singular and and plural noun and to form contractions

1 answer

To show possession for a singular noun, place an apostrophe followed by an "s" at the end of the word, for example: "The dog's bone." For plural nouns ending in "s," just add an apostrophe after the "s," such as: "The dogs' toys." To form contractions, use an apostrophe to replace missing letters, like in the words "can't" (cannot) or "isn't" (is not).
