Okie day!

Well I just want to make sure I'm doing this right. What are the rules for when you put the apostrophe after the S in a sentence??? Do you put the apostrophe AFTER the S if you say: The dogs' bone. Would that mean that there are two or more dogs?

I know about the apostrophe BEFORE the S. I just want to make sure I'm doing this right?

Thanks, -SportiAngel-

Date: 11/18/2002 5:15:00 PM  From Authorid: 50193    before for singular.  
Date: 11/18/2002 5:16:00 PM  From Authorid: 50193    For plural, you put it after, unless you feel you need an extra s (Dogs' and Dogs's is both acceptable). Generally, the rule is whichever you feel would sound better when said out-loud

Date: 11/18/2002 8:22:00 PM  From Authorid: 47699    An apostrophe can be used to show possession. I.E.- That is the dog's bone. (It belongs to the dog.) It can also be used to take the place of a letter or letters as in contractions. I.E.- didn't (did not= didn't) In this case, the apostrophe took that place of the 'o' in
'not'. Look at that last sentence I wrote. I used one on either side of a letter and a word. The only time I can think that you would ever put an apostrophe after a word would be if your trying to show possession with a word or name which ends in 's'. I.E.- That's Elvis' best song. (The song belongs to Elvis. I hope this helps you out.
