Some road signs that lack #apostrophes can be unclear what they mean 😉

I feel like it should have one…? The “work” #grammatically speaking owns its end, does it not?

Otherwise it’s just a statement about work ending in general, not this work in particular.

The importance of Apostrophes

Walmart.

I am asking anyone and everyone that sees this post to share it far and wide.  I have winced while walking under this sign in too many Walmart stores for too long. Let’s get this fixed and save the apostrophe.

Dear #Walmart,

For the love of god, please fix these signs in your stores. “Boy’s” indicates the department belongs to one boy.

The boys’ department should be shown as “Boys’”.

This makes your store chain look stupid, and it’s not a good look.

A transcript prepared by the official White House stenographers referred to “supporters” (no apostrophe).

The transcript released by the White House press office added an apostrophe, making it “supporter’s."

I'm in punctuation hell today, editing a story that in part compares the Old Farmer's Almanac and the Farmers' Almanac.

That's how the two names have been punctuated for more than 200 years.

Here's the real conundrum: "These are the two leading f_____ almanacs."
