The misuse of apostrophes.

Example of incorrect use of an apostrophe.

I have 20 pairs of Jordan’s.

In that example, the apostrophe is misused to pluralize a noun, but apostrophes aren’t used for pluralization, they are used to indicate ownership or possession of a noun.

Correction of above example.

I have 20 pairs of Jordans.



Example of correct apostrophe use.

Those Jordans do not belong to me, they are Michael’s shoes.
