When to Use Apostrophes
Apostrophes are used to show possession and omissions in contractions. An apostrophe is also used when referring to the plural form of a lowercase letter.
- Example: Matthew’s coat was very warm. (Possession)
- Example: I couldn’t care less. (Omission in a contraction)
- Example: The book contained a printing error that turned all its h’s into b’s. (Plural form of a lowercase letter)
