this is a real question

if someone’s name ends in an S and you’re talking about them possessing something, do you still need an extra S

because i was definitely taught that you don’t.

ie lucas’ shirt vs lucas’s shit

that second one just looks wrong

say word

As a certified ‘person whose name ends in S,’ I’d like to make an announcement. 

ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS USE AN APOSTROPHE AND ANOTHER S ON THE END

“THIS IS MILES’S HAT”

“THIS IS MILES’S TUMBLR OUTRAGE”

the only exceptions are biblical and ancient names, so they are Jesus’ sandals or Judas’ pieces of silver
