English sucks as a language anyway.  It's a conglomeration of words
grafted on from many other real languages that mostly still adhere to
the rules of the original language.  The result is that English has no
consistent rules without the ever present, "Except", word.  This
paragraph contains one of the prime examples.  I almost all cases adding
apostrophe "s" on the end of a word denotes ownership, i.e. Tom's car,
but to indicate ownership with the word it the 's' is added without the
apostrophe.  Of course its could also indicate multiple quantities of its.

Then there are words like disgruntled.  Has anyone ever been gruntled?

Then too as in also, two as in one more then one, and to as in where you
are going.  There's lead as in the heavy metal, lead as in being shown
the way, lead as in showing the way.
