The sentence "Tired Hiker's pad" has a: ' before the s, which means that theres a letter missing when theres not, that sentnce actually actually means "Tired Hiker is pad" because usaully when the ' is before and s it means is. Just thought I would let you all know.

genitive(?) form blink

Tired Hiker

Nope. You are wrong. The sentence, Preston's weener is crooked, means that my weener is crooked, not Preston is weener crooked. Get it? erm

If the name of the entity that something belongs to end in s, only an additional apostrophe is required

when you say it's, that means it is. But when you use the apostrophe in a sentence like Tired Hiker's Pad, it means he owns it. DUH. fyou retard.

It is intended in the Posessive form. It is not necessarily replacing anything.

The Sentence "The Pad of Tired Hiker" can be rewritten in the form of "Tired Hiker's pad."

's = belonging to, posessive.
