Nouns that indicate ownership or a direct link are referred to as possessive nouns. In most cases, the possessive form of a singular possessive noun is formed by adding an apostrophe (‘) followed by the letter s to the end of the word. Even abstract nouns can take on the possessive form of almost any other noun.

Possessive nouns are nouns that show ownership or a direct connection. Typically, singular possessive nouns use an apostrophe (’) and the letter s at the end of the word to take the possessive form. Almost any noun can become possessive, even abstract nouns.

The possessive case shows the relationship of a noun to other words in a sentence. That relationship can be ownership, possession, occupancy, a personal relationship, or another kind of association. The possessive of a singular noun is formed by adding an apostrophe and the letter s.
