POSSESSIVE NOUNSPossessive Nouns Show
ownership. An apostrophe denotes the ownership: DO NOT CONFUSE possession
(ownership) with apostrophes used in contractions.
APOSTROPHES are used to show possession,
contractions, and RARELY plurals. Do not use them with
the names of buildings, objects, or pieces of furniture.
