The apostrophe key is typically located to the right of the semicolon (;) key on most standard QWERTY keyboards. If you look at the middle row of keys, you’ll find the apostrophe key, which is shared with the quotation mark (“). To type an apostrophe, simply press that key without holding down the Shift key. In some keyboard layouts or languages, the location may vary slightly, but it is generally in the same area.
