What's this?

Cousin's = singular possessive. Cousins' = plural possessive. (more)


And ChazB's sentence beginning with "Cousin's got...." means "Cousin has got...." and is informal or colloquial usage, as reconhokie points out below. (Btw, "Cousins's " and "mean's" = not words—at least, I can't think of any situation in which they'd be words.) Just love talkin' 'bout language!
