Which of the following sentences is grammatically incorrect?

Correct answer: D. Who's jacket is this?

  • A. Is this your jacket?
  • B. Whose jacket is this?
  • C. Is this jacket yours?
  • D. Who's jacket is this?

Explanation

Another way to ask this question is to say "To whom does this jacket belong?", so we're talking about possession. "Who's" is a contraction that's short for "who is" or "who has", and it does not show ownership. The corrected form is noted above.
