Which punctuation mark is not used with pronouns?

The correct choice identifies the apostrophe as a punctuation mark not typically used with pronouns. Pronouns represent nouns but do not indicate possession in the same way that nouns do. Apostrophes are mainly utilized to show possession (as in "the dog's bowl") or for contractions (like "it's" for "it is").

Pronouns, such as "he," "she," "it," "we," and "they," do not require an apostrophe to convey possession. Instead, possessive forms of pronouns are already formatted to show possession without needing an apostrophe (for example, "his," "her," "its," "our," "their").

The other punctuation marks, like colons, hyphens, and commas, can still be applicable in sentences that include pronouns. For instance, a comma may separate clauses that involve pronouns, and hyphens can be used to link words that may include pronouns in compound structures. However, apostrophes have no function with pronouns, which makes the identification clear and straightforward.
