Most of us can readily apply the following two rules: * to show possession, it's correct to use: its * we may change "it is" to its contraction: it's
So, I would like to be able to search for instances of:
it's
...so I can check whether it's being used as a contraction for "it is" (correct) or as a possessive (incorrect: change to "its").
But when I tried to use Wikipedia search, entering:
it's
I got a bunch of articles with the following 2 characters highlighted in red:
's
...which is a superset of what I want.
What is the correct search string to enter?
