Possessive Case

Description:

The possessive case is a grammatical case used in English and other languages to indicate ownership or possession of something. It is typically formed by adding an apostrophe (') and an "s" to a noun, or sometimes just an apostrophe ('), depending on whether the noun is singular or plural. The possessive case is used to clarify who owns or possesses something.
