Re: Bambikins' Wink Count - Bat - 27-03-2009 10:45 PM
I think that it should be before! It is singular and showing possession.
It would be Bat's, not Bats'.
Re: Bambikins' Wink Count - sims4life1000 - 27-03-2009 10:47 PM
but bambikin isn't the singular word, bambikins is. so showing posession would make it bambikins's. right??
Re: Bambikins' Wink Count - Bat - 27-03-2009 10:48 PM
No, I thought the "'" goes before the "s" in the singular form!
Re: Bambikins' Wink Count - bambigoddess - 27-03-2009 10:49 PM
Exactly! You're not thinking along the right lines, Bat. All the names you use don't end with a 's'.
Try Jess. You wouldn't say 'Jes's' would you? Because the last s is still part of the name.
Re: Bambikins' Wink Count - Bat - 27-03-2009 10:49 PM
You would say "Jess's".
Alright, I give up. I was mistaken.
Re: Bambikins' Wink Count - sims4life1000 - 27-03-2009 10:50 PM
i am kinda confused.
Re: Bambikins' Wink Count - Munsta - 27-03-2009 10:50 PM
I thought you would say Jess'

Bambi wins.
Sorry Bat
Re: Bambikins' Wink Count - bambigoddess - 27-03-2009 10:51 PM
Exactly, Mike!!
Yay!
Jess's works as well, I think...maybe...but I think the most proper way to say it is Jess'.
Just like Bambikins'.

Oh dear, someone doesn't know their apostrophe rules.
