Funny Status Message #37398
X Why oh why do people use an apostrophe to make a word plural? An apostrophe s is only used to show possession (Jane's books) or a contraction for "is" (she's late for work). Get it?

Well actually Tabu, it's just "deer", whether singular or plural.

James' idea is that actually you're incorrect. Apostrophes are used to show plural on words that end in "s".
