1 The Writing Centre s Guide to Apostrophes This PowerPoint is the property of Humber College s Writing Centre and cannot be reproduced without the consent of the Writing Centre WRITING TUTORS
2 Apostrophes The Beginning There are two distinct purposes of the apostrophe: Contractions Indicating Possession
3 Contractions What is it? It is a shortened form of two words. It can add an informal tone to your writing. Use caution when using contractions in essays.
4 Contractions When two words are shortened into one and one or more letters are left out, the apostrophe goes in the place of the missing letter(s). The apostrophe is also used to show the omission of numbers The class of 1997 = The class of 97 Here are examples Original They are Did not Will not Who is, who has Is not Let us It is, it has You would There is, there has We are We will She is, she has Contraction They re Didn t Won t Who s Isn t Let s It s You d There s We re We ll She s
5 Possession What is it? The apostrophe also shows ownership. In these cases there are two nouns. The owner is the first noun. The apostrophe is given to this noun. It possesses the noun or nouns that come right after it.
6 Examples: Ask yourself, who possesses what? The student s homework The opera singer s voice A driver s license Worker s compensation A day s work Your money s worth
7 Examples: Ask yourself, who possesses what? The student s homework The opera singer s voice A driver s license Worker s compensation A day s work Your money s worth
8 Examples: Ask yourself, who possesses what? The student s homework The opera singer s voice A driver s license Worker s compensation A day s work Your money s worth
9 Other rules to remember Add an apostrophe and an s to singular and plural nouns that don t end in s : Person + s = the person s opinion Teacher + s = the teacher s lecture Father-in-law + s = my father-inlaw s house People + s = people s choice Women + s = women s coat Children + s = children s toys Add ONLY an apostrophe to the end of plural nouns that end in s : James + = James dog Boys + = the boys washroom Two girls + = two girls dolls Doctors + = doctors office Workers + = workers break Bridget Jones + = Bridget Jones Diary
10 Other rules to remember Add an apostrophe and an s to singular and plural nouns that don t end in s : Person + s = the person s opinion Teacher + s = the teacher s lecture Father-in-law + s = my father-inlaw s house People + s = people s choice Women + s = women s coat Children + s = children s toys Add ONLY an apostrophe to the end of plural nouns that end in s : James + = James dog Boys + = the boys washroom Two girls + = two girls dolls Doctors + = doctors office Workers + = workers break Bridget Jones + = Bridget Jones Diary
11 Remember! Don t assume that if a word ends in s, it is possessive. Make sure that the word possesses something before you give it an apostrophe. Examples: The hunters were angry. We invited the Johnsons over for dinner. Notice there are no apostrophes in the words hunters and Johnsons because these words do not possess anything.
12 Remember! Don t assume that if a word ends in s, it is possessive. Make sure that the word possesses something before you give it an apostrophe. Examples: The hunters were angry. We invited the Johnsons over for dinner. Notice there are no apostrophes in the words hunters and Johnsons because these words do not possess anything.
13 Special Considerations Joint Possession If more than one noun has ownership of the same thing, only the last noun should be possessive. Joyce and Greg s new car is red (The car belongs to both Joyce and Greg) To show individual possession, make each noun possessive. Joyce s and Greg s opinions were different. (The opinions that Joyce had were different from the opinions that Greg had)
14 Special Considerations Plurals of Numbers, Letters, and Abbreviations An apostrophe and an s can be used to pluralize single letters and abbreviations with punctuation. Examples: Make sure to cross your t s and dot your i s. Three students got A s on the test. It took Joanne many years to earn their Ph.D. s. You only need to add an s to make numbers and abbreviations without punctuation plural. Examples: My grandfather was born in the 1930s. Isabelle loved to skate figure 8s. There have been many UFOs sighted in New Mexico.
15 Possessive Pronouns Note that in the following words, which are called possessive pronouns, are already possessive in form and do NOT take an apostrophe or an s Chart of possessive pronouns My/Mine Its His Her/Hers Their/Theirs Your Whose Our/Ours
