PLEASE I NEED ALL YOUR HELP FOR THIS
Hi!
I have a tremendous doubt with all the thing about possession with the apostrophe.
some websites say that we can use ('s) for animated nouns ( person, animal ), and we must use (of) for inanimated nouns. In others websites say we can use the ('s) with everything?, so, what is the truth?
e.g:
tracy's house (we can use it because tracy is a person)
color's day (we can not use it because color is an inanimated thing) we must use " day of the color "
my question came to my mind because one friend asked me if " colors' day party " was ok

- g: tracy's house (we can use it because tracy is a person) color's day (we can not use it because color is an inanimated thing) we must use " day of the color " my question came to my mind because one friend asked me if " colors' day party " was ok This is quite a complicated question.
- Instead of a long reply, let me just say that the 'apostophe ess' is often used for something that seems like it is a part of something.
