    Hello everyone,

    well I think this is the best place to find answer to my question... :) Among copywriters. :)
    As I'm not an "native English" speaker I would need your help / advice on this...

    I would like to use two words for something and one of them will be name...
    So I would like to make sure that it is correctly said on English before doing so...

    If names are:
    Jack
    Gil
    Lee
    Ron
    Kim
    Deb
    Ann

    for example...

    And I want to say that something belongs to any of them, like they are creators of it, like they are writing reviews (made by them), is this correct:

    Jacks Reviews or is it Jack's Reviews?
    Rons Reviews or is it Ron's Reviews?
    Anns Reviews or isit Ron's Reviews?

    Do I just add ~s~ or should I add ~'s~...

    Help please... :)

    Thank you!

    "Jack's reviews" is correct!... name or word + 's shows possession. If the name or word ends with letter S then the apostrophe ' goes AFTER the S e.g Jesus' mother is correct! NOT Jesus's Mother (incorrect)
