Question

An incorrectly punctuated sentence is provided. Choose which of these options can correct it:
The building had lost all its window's and door's.

• A. 'Its' is a possessive form and needs an apostrophe.
• B. The 'doors and windows' are plural and need the apostrophe after the final 's'.
• C. The 'doors and windows' do not need an apostrophe.
• D. There should be an apostrophe followed by 's' after 'building'.
• E. All the above

Answer 1

The correct option is C The 'doors and windows' do not need an apostrophe.

Apostrophe is used to indicate belonging. Here, apostrophe is used with 'door' and 'window' but there is nothing mentioned which belongs to the doors and windows. Therefore, the correct option is: C) The 'doors' and 'windows' do not need an apostrophe.
