    How to use 's
    Hope some one can answer this. Can "Sophie's up" be uses in place of "Sophie is up". My sister is saying yes and I disagree.

    Your sister is right. Sophie's is using the contraction of Sophie is.

    It may be okay to do it that way, but you should avoid punctuation like this, as well as things like "don't" or "wasn't" in formal papers or other writings. Spell things out for school papers and things like that.
