Apostrophe? - weeks of age
Posted: Oct 07, 2012
This dictator keeps stating "12 weeks of age," and I keep doubting myself whether it should be 12 weeks' of age or without an apostrophe? Anyone know? TIA
No apostrophe in this case - sm

Apostrophe? - Of age

The word of or and, etc., cancels out apostrophes - nm
