Jason: Marcus and I were thinking of practicing our Klingon war chants today. Paige: How lovely. Jason: Would it bother you if we did it over here? Paige: Duh. What do you think? Jason: Ok, but on a scale of 1 to 10, how much? Paige: Eleven Marcus: My sisters averaged a 12. Come on over. Jason: On my way, Gapla!

He only has one sister, so why is there no apostrophe before the S in “sisters”?

Marcus is speaking, not Jason. Note the jagged line coming out of the phone.

Right, mpk39. Also, you can’t really “average” a single reply from a single person (if Arye Uygur is referring to Paige.)

Gapla Jowee (forgive the spelling — that’s phonetic)

If you are talking about the possession of two sisters, then the apostrophe goes after the final s: sisters’.
AVJ over 12 years ago
No, dflak, there’s no possessive here, so no apostrophe! His sisters (plural noun, subject of sentence) averaged 12 [points].

If they practice it among big sisters, then today would be a good day to die.

Of course a really good chant takes three to four Klingons and a Klingon elder to correct mistakes….
