| I have a question that relates to this subject. When a singular noun ends in an "s" - does one add just an apostrophe, or is apostrophe followed by another "s" correct? I found *rules* stating one way on some websites, the other way on different websites. When I subbed in an English class last year, the book stated the latter. Is it James' book ... or James's book?
Is it "Mr. Kyriakis's house" and "the Kyariakis' house" (if the latter refers to the house owned by more than one Kyariakis family member)?
For the record, I am under the impression that it is James's book and that the Kyriakis examples are correct. Please feel free to enlighten me if I am wrong! |
