54. Okay let's try a different form
Edited on Wed Jan-21-09 01:05 PM by Winterblues
Sally has a new coat it is Sally's new coat. See how the apostrophe is applied in a possessive form. It is a pronoun. It can have a new coat as well and it would be referred to as it's new coat. There is no contraction. It's is a possessive form of the pronoun it. In fact I am hard pressed to come up with a plural form of the pronoun it. If it is a number, how many its are in the box...I know it doesn't make any sense but it is a plural form of the pronoun it..
