Nouns Continued 9 Although plural nouns (more than one person, place, thing, or idea) and possessive nouns (showing ownership) often sound similar when said out loud, they are spelled differently and have different meanings. Ex. Plural Nouns: The novelists gathered at the convention. Singular Possessive: The novelist’s main character was a hero. Plural Possessive: The novelists’ meeting went well An appositive is a noun or phrase that renames another noun in a sentence. The appositive offers more information about the noun. DETAILS! Ex. Lucille, my great aunt in Texas, owns a small art gallery. If the appositive is unnecessary to the meaning of the sentence, use commas to set it off. The example above is an unnecessary appositive; we do not need it, it just provides more information. If the appositive is necessary to convey the meaning of the sentence, no commas are needed. Ex. The author Jane Austen wrote six novels.
