Actually she is wrong with the examples. s' is for plural posessive. s's is for singular possesive. example:

1. The class's assignment is easy.

2. All of those classes' assignments were easy.

Hmm... While I'm sure that not every Arkansan is bad at grammar, you clearly are. You're also bad at spelling and punctuation.

In England, James's book is correct. James' book is correct in American English.

@spinemelter2000 From the grammar site englishplus com:

"That" may refer to a class or type of person.

Great college education you got there.

[spinemelter2000]

@Parralyzed A person is a who, not a that. I learned that in college. Did you go to college? 

[Parralyzed]

@spinemelter2000 You can use "that" for a person, idiot

@StanOfGB this was before ana was hired...

"not buyin what your sayin" oh please with those tits she can sell me anything

[ShalomDove]

"Nobody does " 's's " unless you didn't go to school."

So, a Cornell University English professor never went to school, then? The first page of William Strunk's "Elements of Style" deals with this rule using the following examples: "Charles's friend"; "Burns's poems." (Professor Strunk wrote the guide and his student, E.B. White, added to it).

It drives me nuts when people who don't know what they're talking about act like everyone ELSE is ignorant.

1:37 "For everyone that's grown up" should be "For everyone WHO has grown up." I refuse to believe that that twit finished second grade.

@Chadjbecher1 thank you for that! Even though this is a year old, people need to know proper grammar.
