Driving me nuts

in nomates •  6 years ago 

Hi all!
Its been a while. I know. But i have a question that has been driving me insane and nobody seems to know the answer. Hoping and praying that someone here can put me out of my misery.

What is the plural of McDonalds?

My friend says Mcdonalds's, but that doesn't sound right.

Please please please, somebody, anybody, HELP!

      I just posted a question and promised myself I would answer one in return so here goes, there is a lovely Quora article wrestling with this same existential question. ;) https://www.quora.com/Assuming-McDonalds-is-spelled-that-way-how-do-you-form-the-plural-possesive-McDonaldss-Or-McDonalds

        😂
        That ends with:
        "the best approach is to re-phrase the writing so as to avoid having to use the plural"

            So basically, out of everyone on Faceybook, Twitter, and Steemit, the best answer there is seems to be: "just try not to use it".
            What a wonderful world. 😂
