- Now I realize that it would be convenient for me to partially quote other's posts and translate them into English, because not so many things happn in my pretty ordinary daily life.
- Now I realize that it would be more convenient for me to partially quote other's' posts and translate them into English, because not so many there aren't so many things that happen in my pretty ordinary daily life.
- 1. Bear in mind the possessive S doesn't work the same with some plurals One other = The other's posts several others = The others' posts Any word with S at the end already must put the apostrophe at the end without an additional S. (It's accepted that you could put others's, but it looks messy when you have several in a row like in boss's) 2. Just a tip, if you want your sentence to sound more casual, you can say: "There's not so much stuff happening in my..." "There's not so much going on in my..." 'Things' is fine, but it's a little generic in comparison. :)
