Tip of the Week, 11.08.10: It’s and Its

The words, it’s and its, are easy to confuse.
It’s is the contraction of it is. This is the only meaning for it’s.

When you want to show that it has possession of something, you simply write its. For example, ‘this was its fate’.

Its’ is not a word and should not be used.
