About this deal

The correct possessive form of “one” is “one’s.” We use it when writing “one” as a pronoun (which is rare but doable). There are no cases where “ones'” is correct because this would be the plural possessive, and we can’t use pronouns in the plural form. The singular possessive only applies when talking about the pronoun “one” (which is a very formal way of saying “you” or “I” depending on the context). The only time where the plural form “ones” is used is when we’re talking about an unspecified number of things or a group of objects. We never use “ones” as a pronoun, meaning there is no way for it to be possessive in nature. For this reason, “ones'” is never correct. Now we get to the plural possessive form. Unfortunately, there are no cases where we might use the plural possessive in any way. In August 2013, Cher released the video "A Woman's World" and almost immediately fans of the Ones complained of similarities to the Ones' video "Face & Body" which was released months earlier the same year. The band saw the comparison more as a compliment than controversy. [5]

Finally, we thought a quiz might help you to understand the rules better. If you’ve paid close attention, you’ll have an easy time working out the answer for each of the following. One’s” is not a common possessive form, but that doesn’t mean it’s not correct. When using “one” as a pronoun, we can include the possessive form if “one” owns something in the sentence. It would be the same as changing “you” to “yous,” which isn’t something we can do, as there is no plural written form of you (“you” in the plural is still “you,” just like “one” is). Roberts, David (2006). British Hit Singles & Albums (19thed.). London: Guinness World Records Limited. p.362. ISBN 1-904994-10-5. Stephen Daw (March 23, 2020). "Drag Community Mourns the Death of Nashom Wooden After Reported Coronavirus Diagnosis". Billboard . Retrieved March 24, 2020.The singular and plural forms make sense. When talking about “one” as a number or a series or group of “ones,” we can use it in this way. This is the home of one’s treasure, though we cannot speak to how one might react if they find us here.

There is no possession or possessive form involved when we use “ones.” The plural form simply shows that there’s more than “one” instance of something. One” works as a pronoun similar to “you” and “I.” However, we rarely use it in spoken or written English. Still, it comes with a possessive form that is correct should we need it. Remember, you cannot change the form of “one” as a pronoun, so “one’s” is the only correct possessive form in this manner. Quiz: Have You Mastered Ones Or One’s Or Ones’? One’s” is the only correct possessive form for “one.” We can only ever write “one” in the possessive form as a pronoun, which means we can’t change it from singular to plural. There are no cases where “ones'” is the correct form, so it can be disregarded.My confusion is that if we're using River in the sentence isn't it a little redundant to say "one" since we already know we're talking about the river? Here are enough instances of We are the ones to... in Google Books to show it's not a particularly rare usage (if you follow the link, you'll see that We are the one to... is below the radar there). The pronoun itself is old-fashioned and rarely used. The only modern instances you might hear it are in Received Pronunciation (as spoken by the British Royal Family).
