belongs to a person or animal:
Cosmo's basket
my parents' room
• We add an apostrophe + -s ('s) after a
name (Peter's) or a singular noun (the
eat's):
Peter's sister the eat's tail

of

add an apostrophe, or the apostrophe
+ -s ('s):
Charles' sister OR Charles's sister
Possessive Is: plural

When we talk about something that does
not belong to a person or animal, but is
part of another thing, we do not use's.

add an apostrophe (without the -s):
