It’s an apple Magic Mouse and its new battery backup.

The possessive of “it” is just “its”

“It’s” is short for “it is” like “you’re” for “you are”

I’m not trying to be rude—just want to be helpful. I used to incorrectly use it’s the same way.

So did they write "its" or "it's"? Because the comment is currently correct.

No, it's not fixed.

and it's new...

[–] NightAuthor 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think they just wanted to use its wrong

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

What about it's wrong?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Downvoters must have hated being in school. Rude teachers correcting grammar all day...

But for Henry's it's still apostrophe s. Because that makes sense.

Its is a possessive pronoun. His, hers, theirs, and its, not hi's, her's, their's, and it's.
