Deathfreeze I've always put an apostrophie in conjunctions. However, I'm most confused when using it to show possession and all of that nonsense. I'll see sentences like: "The dog's love you." The dog is love you? Like that makes any sense? Just tell me if this is right. x.x I'm just thinking of what it could be. If you're talking about more than one object, you just add an -s, not apostrophie, but if you're showing possession, you add an -'s? eek Halphalp!
Sounds like they're just trying to make "dog" plural...I think it's quite a common problem razz .
Yes, making something plural just adds an s. possession includes an apostrophe, like "Jill's shoes." In the case where you're indicating possession for a word that ends with an s, you still add the 's...so "Charles's golf clubs" is correct. And in the case that you are indicating possession for something that is plural...you just stick the apostrophe on the end. So..."the horses' bridles" would be correct.

Oh wow, that has cleared up a great many clouds for me! THank you! My friend Ronni says correcting people is an unhealthy addiction, howevere, I find nothing wrong with it. Commas in incorrect places annoy me about on the same level as apostrophes. Speaking of which, last year, during our school's spelling bee, I misspelled the word "Apostrophe". exclaim I knew how to spell the word, too!!!!! AGH!!!
