the punctuation mark ' used to indicate the omission of a letter or number, such as he's for he has or he is, also used in English to form the possessive, as in John's father and twenty pounds' worth. I have found two variant of this word in Hindi अपोसट्रफि___apostrofi and ऐपॉस्ट्रॉफ़ी ___aipausTraufii. Which one is the right variant? Is there a better one?
