An apostrophe is a punctuation mark used primarily to indicate possession or the omission of letters in contractions. For instance, in "Sarah's book," the apostrophe shows that the book belongs to Sarah. In contractions like "don't," it replaces the omitted letters from "do not." Apostrophes help clarify meaning in writing by providing grammatical context.
