Take a minute from all the nasty political discourse and weigh in on the most important policy question of the 2024 election. What does a word nerd do about making the plural possessive of the two Democratic candidates' last names that end with S and Z? As noted in this article, “Anyone who tells you there are universal rules to how to add an apostrophe ending in S is either wrong or lying,” Jeffrey Barg, a grammar columnist, said. “You can’t be wrong as long as you’re consistent.” I personally don't have a strong feeling about this grammar rule that differs with various style guides (unlike my passion about the Oxford comma). But I agree with the expert above about consistency. Make sure your organization has its own style guide on questions like this - and remains consistent in the use of grammar conundrums like this one.
