How do you show possession on a word ending in z?

There are two ways to show possession on a word ending in "z":

1. Add an apostrophe and an "s": This is the most common method.

* Example: Buzz's beehive

2. Add only an apostrophe: This is used when the word is plural and already ends in "s."

* Example: The buzzes' noise was overwhelming.

Here's a breakdown:

* Singular noun ending in "z": Add an apostrophe and an "s" to show possession.

* Plural noun ending in "z": Add an apostrophe only to show possession.

Remember: These rules apply to all nouns ending in "s," "x," or "z."
