Grammar nesties - "Ladies Brunch" or "Ladies' Brunch"?
I'm finishing up an invitation for my mom's birthday. It says "Join us for a Ladies Brunch to Celebrate Brenda's 60th Birthday". Should it be Ladies or Ladies' possessive?
I feel like it should be possessive but then I think it looks funny and I think most people leave off the apostrophe. Help please :-)
Re: Grammar nesties - "Ladies Brunch" or "Ladies' Brunch"?
I think its just ladies.
the brunch doesn't belong to the ladies, its just an event they are attending ( ... the reasoning sounds a lot better in my head )
It is posessive. You need the apostrophe. I don't know if this logic helps, but you can think of it this way: it is a brunch gathering of ladies; the brunch gathering belongs to them.
Try it with the masculine and it will make sense why it is plural possessive --Ladies'
Plural of man is men, and their brunch would be Men's Brunch not just Men Brunch.
