This is something I’m struggling with as someone who is not a native English speaker. Can someone please explain to me when ‘S, S’, or S should be used? Thank you!

s or es is added to the end of count nouns to make them plural. Count nouns refer to people, places, and things that can be counted.
Example:
One apple – two apples
‘s or s’ is used to show possession.
If the one possessing is singular, use apostrophe + s (‘s)
Example:
Mirabel’s room
Bruno’s shirt
Use s + apostrophe (s’) for nouns that always end in the letter s and plural nouns.
Example:
The Madrigals’ house
Dolores’ room
I made it as simple as possible so that it’s easier to understand. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions. Cheers!
