Note To Self

[Siphorous]

...is the title of a thread I made elsewhere, inspired to do so again by a recent post in General in a thread by Janie.

Let us begin. I make mistakes quite often but when you think about it and take a bit of time - they can be sorted!

-----------------------------------------------

My parents’ marriage broke down when I was eight. (if you are talking about both parents)

My parent’s marriage broke down……. (if you are talking about only one parent – not likely in an example like this)


Similarly:

My dog likes bones (one dog)

My dogs like bones (more than one dog)

My dog’s bone (one dog, one bone)

My dogs’ bone (more than one dog, only one bone)

My dog’s bones (one dog, more than one bone)

My dogs’ bones (more than one dog, more than one bone)


Does this make sense?
