This question is a little confusing, a word is not usually placed in an apostophe ('). An apostrophe is used to show possession, such as Sally's book or the boys' cars, or to join to words in a contraction isn't, couldn't, won't, but contractions are usually not proper in formal writing. If the question concerns when quotation marks (") should be placed around words, it is when information is sited from another document. Sometimes people feel the need to enclose colloquialisms (slang words) in quotations, i.e. this is "cool." However, according the the Strunk and White style manual, this is not necessary. Simply use the phrase; "do not draw attention to it by enclosing it in quotation marks" (Strunk and White, 34). But, if there is a dialogue inside a quote from a novel, then single quotes (') are used. For example, "'What is the matter with you?' cried his mother" (Crime and Punishment, 311). The actual dialogue has single quotes, but the whole documented text is enclosed in double quotations.
