Possesives
1 min read · 100 words
When showing that something is possessed, the noun or concept that is being possessed will have what looks like an em dash (-) above the first letter. It does not take up a full writing space, it is just a small marker. The possessed thing will also be followed by an apostrophe and the appropriate pronoun to show who is possessing the noun or concept. If the owner is named, then their name simply is placed before the thing being possessed, this applied to both written and spoken sentences.
