What kind of apostrophe use is
its'
?!
8 2 ReplyThat's how I learned to use the posessive pronoun of "it".
3 2 Reply"it's" always means either "it is" or "it has".
"its" implies possession.
In general, apostrophe is used for:
- Contractions (don't, won't, she's)
- Possession (John's book, the dog's bone)
- Plural possession (dogs' bones, teachers' lounge)
Never use apostrophes for regular plurals
(he has so many pencil's)1 0 ReplyUnfortunately, the rules for apostrophes in English are made up for each individual word. Lots of native speakers get it wrong, and I don't know how non-native speakers could possibly keep it all straight.

That I believe is only for plurals, such as:
(one) cat's paw vs (multiple) cats' paws
It, however, is not a plural, otherwise it would be "they". Though I must admit I've probably made the same mistake myself.
