SCIENTIFIC PAPER

POSSESSIVE NOUNS
Many
people
have
trouble
distinguishing
between possessive
nouns and plural nouns. Possessive nouns and pronouns demonstrate
ownership or some similar relationship over something else. Plural nouns
indicate more than one person, place or thing.
LOOK FOR THE APOSTROPHE
Possessive nouns typically include an apostrophe. For example:

Jennifers imagination ran wild as she pictured the accident.

The kittens toy is a stuffed catnip mouse.

Think of the apostrophe mark as a hook or hand reaching out to take

ownership of the object. Without the little hook or hand grabbing onto the s or
the next word, the noun is simply plural.
GRAMMAR RULES FOR POSSESSIVE NOUNS
Five basic grammar rules cover the majority of instances where writers
encounter possessive nouns.
RULE #1: MAKING SINGULAR NOUNS POSSESSIVE
Add an apostrophe + s to most singular nouns and to plural nouns that do not
end in s.
Youll use this rule the most, so pay particular attention to it. English has some
words that are plural but do not add an s. Words like children, sheep, women
and men are such words. These plural words are treated as if they were
singular words when making noun possessives.
Examples:

Singular nouns: kittens toy, Joes car, MLBs ruling

Plurals not ending in s: womens dresses, sheeps pasture, childrens
toys

RULE #2: MAKING PLURAL NOUNS POSSESSIVE

Add an apostrophe only to plural nouns that already end in s.

You dont need to add an extra s to plural nouns that already end with the
letter s. Simply tuck the apostrophe onto the end to indicate that the plural
noun is now a plural possessive noun.
Examples:

Companies workers
Horses stalls
Countries armies

RULE #3: MAKING HYPHENATED NOUNS AND COMPOUND NOUNS PLURAL

Compound and hyphenated words can be tricky. Add the apostrophe + s to
the end of the compound words or the last word in a hyphenated noun.
Examples:

My mother-in-laws recipe for meatloaf is my husbands favorite.

The United States Post Offices stamps are available in rolls or in
packets.

RULE #4: INDICATING POSSESSION WHEN TWO NOUNS ARE JOINED TOGETHER
You may be writing about two people or two places or things that share
possession of an object. If two nouns share ownership, indicate possession
only once, and on the second noun. Add the apostrophe + s to the second
noun only.
Examples:

Jack and Jills pail of water features prominently in the nursery rhyme.
Abbot and Costellos comedy skit Whos On First is a classic act.

RULE #5: INDICATING

POSSESSION WHEN TWO NOUNS ARE JOINED, AND

OWNERSHIP IS SEPARATE

This is the trickiest of all, but thankfully youll probably need this rule
infrequently. When two nouns indicate ownership, but the ownership is
separate, each noun gets the apostrophe + s. The examples below may help
you understand exactly what this means.
Example:

Lucys and Rickys dressing rooms were painted pink and blue. (Each
owns his or her own dressing room, and they are different rooms).

Senator Obamas and Senator Clintons educations are outstanding.

(Each senator owns his or her education, but they attained separate
educations).

POSSESSIVE NOUNS
Definition:
Possessive comes from the same root as possession, something you
own. Possessive nouns show ownership.
Don't let the rules confuse you. They are very basic.
Rule 1: add 's to words to show possession.
Dog's
collar
(dog+'s)

sister's
backpack
(sister+'s)

car's
engine
(car+'s)

Rule 2 - the exception: If you have added an s to a word to make it plural,

(cat cats), adding 's will sound ridiculous (cats's). In that case, add only the
apostrophe.
Dogs' collars
(dog+s+')

cars' engines
(car+s+')

Plurals that don't end in s follow rule 1.

Children's homework
(children+'s)

sisters'
backpacks
(sister+s+')

fish's bowls
(fish+'s)

octopi's tentacles
(octopi+'s)

If the s at the end of the word is part of the original word, follow rule 1.
Charles's
sneakers
(Charles+'s)

Bess's
dresses
(Bess+'s)

bus's tires
(bus+'s)

Hint:
To check a word, look in front of the apostrophe and see if the word is
singular or plural. Examples: One dog|'s tail (one dog has one
tail), Two dogs|' tails (two dogs have two tails).
If two people own something together, use an 's after the second person.
Joe and Mary's car is new.

If two people each own their own of something, they each get 's.
Laurie's and Megan's nails are painted the same color.
You may find certain names that end in s add just an apostrophe. That rule is
somewhat old-fashioned. Names like Jesus, Moses, Achilles, Charles Dickens
(historical names that end in iz or eez sounds) can have just the ' or 's.
Jesus' parables were intstructional stories. Moses' first tablets were broken.
Jesus's parables were instructional stories. Moses's first tablets were broken.
We usually pronounce the extra s, so adding 's is just as correct in modern
writing.
Note:
Possessive nouns act as adjectives in sentences. They modify the nouns that
follow them.

What Are Possessive Nouns?

A possessive noun is a noun indicating ownership (or possession). Here are
some examples of possessive nouns (shaded):

a dog's bone

a man's jacket

a lion's mane

The examples above are obviously about possession (i.e., ownership). They
refer to the bone of the dog, the jacket of the man, and the mane of the lion.
However, possessive nouns are not always so obviously about possession.
Look at these examples of possessive nouns:

a book's pages

a day's pay

a week's worth

the stone's throw

Sometimes, possessive nouns are clearly not about possession. Look at

these examples:

The Children's Minister

(This is a minister for children's affairs. The minister does not belong to the
children.)

Rembrandt's paintings

(These are paintings by Rembrandt. He does not own them.)

So, in order to say that possessive nouns indicate possession, you have to
have a very broad definition of the word possession.
Using Apostrophes to Form Possessive Nouns
You will notice that all of the examples above end 's. However, not all
possessive nouns end this way. Here are the basic rules for creating a
possessive

Possessive Nouns with Inanimate Objects
As you can see from some of the examples above (e.g., a book's pages, a
day's pay), it is possible for inanimate things (e.g. a book) and even intangible
things (e.g. a day) to possess objects from a grammatical perspective.
However, be aware that some writers like to shy away from using the
possessive form with inanimate objects. In other words, they would prefer:

The pages of a book

the nib of a biro.

A book's pages

A biro's nib

to:

This is one of those times when you can let your instinct guide you. Both
versions are acceptable. Choose the one that grates less on your ears.
Also, do not forget that some nouns can be used as adjectives. So, you might
not need to make a decision on whether to use of or a possessive noun. For
example:

A car door (best version)

A door of a car (possible but awkward)

A car's door (possible but still awkward)

Possessive Nouns in Time Expressions

Possessive

nouns

are

common

in

time

expressions as they're also known). For example:

A day's salary

Two days' salary

expressions

(or temporal

Three years' insurance

Three years' insurance

Similarly, possessive nouns are used for other measurements unrelated to

time. For example:

Five dollars' worth

A stone's throw away
