THE POSSESSIVE CASE (’s)

The possessive case (or "Saxon genitive") is one of the ways of expressing possession in  English when the holder is a person, an animal, or a country; the other is with the  preposition “of”.

TRAINING:

1 - When the holder is in the singular:

 POSSESSOR + (’S) + POSSESSED THING (no item)

 My father’s car = My father’s car

 Mary’s book = Mary’s book

 The cat's ears = The cat's ears

 France's cities = France's cities

2 - When the possessor is in the plural ending in "-s":

 POSSESSOR + (’) + POSSESSED THING (no item)

 My friends 'car = My friends' car

3 - When the possessor is in the plural that does not end in "-s":

 POSSESSOR + (’S) + POSSESSED THING (no item)

 The children’s toys = The children’s toys

4 - When the holder is a proper name ending in “–s” it admits both options.

 POSSESSOR + (’S) + POSSESSED THING (no item)

 Charles’s car = Charles’s car

 OWNER + (‘) + THING OWNED

 Charles ’car = Carlos's car

5 - When the possessor is an object, the preposition “of” is used:

 The leg of the table = The leg of the table
