I understand the plural and possessive rules for using an apostrophe. However, I find the rules for apostrophe use a bit confusing when a word is plural and possessive. Recently, I searched on Google (as I often do) for more explanations about apostrophes and their proper uses. I found some great information and even a flowchart that explains, with examples and illustrations, how to use an apostrophe correctly. It simplifies apostrophe use with plurals, possessives and contractions. As a visual learner, the chart was quite helpful to me.
Flickr uses photos to point out numerous incorrect uses of the apostrophe. The images are quite funny and made me realize I wasn't as confused as others!
