Answer:
An apostrophe (’) is used to create possessive forms, contractions and some plural forms. It indicates where the letter has been omitted.
I am = I’m
He’s = he is
They’re = they are
Do not = don’t
I’d = I would or I had
She would have failed. = She would’ve failed.
Contracted forms are not considered appropriate in formal writing. However, it is basically a matter of personal choice.
Before writing contractions in a paper that is going to be graded, you should ask your tutor whether it is appropriate to include them in your writing.
Apostrophes are used in writing possessives.
While writing possessives, the position of the apostrophe depends on whether the noun is singular or plural.
