Possessive nouns are used to show ownership or possession. Therefore, we use possessive nouns to show who or what owns or has possession of something.
\nThere are rules and guidelines that students are expected to use to get the correct possessive form of nouns<\/p>\n
Rule 1: To get the possessive form of singular nouns (people, places, or things), we add an apostrophe+s, (‘s), at the end of the noun. Rule 3: For regular plural nouns, we get the possessive form by adding an apostrophe after the s. The worksheets below will help learners understand the concept of possessive nouns.
