Question

Complete the following sentence using a suitable noun:
The neighbourhood park is a mile from _______ house.

• A. Anis
• B. Anis's
• C. Anis'
• D. Anises

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

Anis's

The possessive form of a noun is formed using an 's.

The noun in question here is a proper noun, Anis.

Option B: The possessive form of the noun 'Anis' is Anis's. It's formed by adding an 's to it. Hence option B is correct.

Option A: The noun 'Anis' is not in the possessive case.

Option C: Anis' is not in the possessive case. It should be formed using an 's, whereas here it's just an '.

We use just an apostrophe ' when the noun is plural. But here, 'Anis' is not a plural noun. It's a proper noun and is singular.

Option D: Anises is a plural form of the noun Anis. But proper nouns do not have plural forms.

Hence options A, C and D are incorrect.
