TLAS (Target Language Analysis • Language development, effectiveness of the clarification stage, focus on meaning, form, function, formality, syntax, pronunciation, and ways to check understanding

https://www.teachingenglish.org.uk/article/analysing-language Meaning /Use: The possessive form is used with nouns referring to people, groups of people, countries, and animals. It shows a relationship of belonging between one thing and another. Form: To form the possessive, add apostrophe + s to the noun. If the noun is plural, or already ends in s, just add an apostrophe after the s. For names ending in s, you can either add an apostrophe + s, or just an apostrophe. The first option is more common. Pronunciation: When pronouncing a possessive name, we add the sound /z/ to the end of the name.
