Possessive 's or Saxon Genitive

LOOK at these sentences:

Pam's hat.
My son's toys.
The dog's name is Lula.

We often use the saxon genitive  with people or animals. Although it is commonly used to show possession, it sometimes has other meanings.  EXAMPLES:

This is John's car (= this car belongs to John).
Where is the director's office? (= the office where the director works).

RULES:

  • Write 's with a singular noun: My daughter's friends. 
  • Write only ' with a plural noun ending in -s: My friends' house. 
  • Write 's with a plural noun not ending in -s: The children's teacher.
