Final answer:

The word 'child' can be used in the plural form as 'children,' in the plural possessive form as 'children's,' and as part of a contraction such as 'they're.'


Step-by-step explanation:

The word 'child' can be used in the plural form as 'children' in a sentence like 'The children were playing in the park.'

The plural possessive form of 'child' is 'children's,' as seen in the sentence 'The children's toys were scattered all over the room.'

The word 'child' can also be used as part of a contraction, such as 'they're' which is a contraction of 'they are' as in the sentence 'They're going to the party.'
