Plurals



To make a word plural, mostly you just add s. NEVER 's. The apostrophe indicates possessives.

If you're confused about apostrophes, check out my previous post (http://helenwoodallfreelanceediting.blogspot.com.au/2012/01/apostrophes.html )

 Grammar Monster explains how to form a plural very well.

    Apostrophes for possessives, except for possessive pronouns, which have _no_ apostrophes--a fact which is greatly confusing to my younger sister! She can't fathom why I'd want to borrow grammar beek from the library and read them for fun.
    I love the little grammar/spelling poems, by the way.
    Thanks again for a great post!
