Hello there! ^^
I made some corrections below, kindly review numbers 3, 5, 6, and 8. By the way, here\'s a rule in using the apostrophe that I want to share with you.
Rule 2: Although names ending in s or an s sound are not required to have the second s added in possessive form, it is preferred.
EXAMPLE: Mr. [Name]\'s golf clubs ; Texas\'s weather
Rule 4:To show plural possession, make the noun plural first. Then immediately use the apostrophe.
EXAMPLE: two boys\' hats two women\'s hats ;the Joneses\' golf clubs Rule 8: Use the apostrophe and s after the second name only if two people possess the same item.
EXAMPLE: Cesar and Maribel\'s home is constructed of redwood.I hope these things could help you understand more the usage of apostrophe. Good ngiht! ^^
