Grammar
Descriptive apostrophe
Which one is correct?
"The temperature of the tank"
"Tanks temperature"
"Tank's temperature"
I remember reading somewhere that one could use the apostrophe with inanimate objects if it was referred to a description and not a possession.
Is this right??
Thank you gor your attention.
