tootzrll · Answer

okay, do u know what a plural is?

anonymous · Answer

plural possessive is when you are referring to multiple people's possessions.

anonymous · Answer

The Elves' machines, the babies' toys, the teachers' favorite parking spots... you always put the apostrophe after the S when you are doing plural possessive

alones · Answer

SAME THING MY TEACHER SAID BUT I STILL CONFUSE PLURAL AND SINGLE POSSESSIVE

anonymous · Answer

Plural is multiple people, single is one person... what's there to be confused about?

alones · Answer

o so i should say wive's

anonymous · Answer

That's if your talking about a single wife yes.

alones · Answer

but it's plural so i put wive's right

anonymous · Answer

oh yea, I forgot, if it ends with a s, you put the apostrophe after the s. If it doesn't end with a s you put an apostrophe s..

anonymous · Answer

Because wives end with an s, you only put an apostrophe after
