Yours is the correct spelling for the second-person possessive pronoun. Your’s—with an apostrophe—is a misspelling of yours and is always incorrect.
Possession is usually indicated by adding ‘s to a word, but possessive pronouns are the exception to this rule. This is why some people get confused when choosing your’soryours.

Language is ever-changing, and slang words are one of the clearest indicators of that. Slang is an informal vocabulary that’s common in everyday speech but should be avoided in formal writing or speaking.
Slang words develop through a combination of creativity and social influence, and they are often born out of the need for a unique form of expression within a specific group or subculture.
Slang can develop, for example, along geographical (e.g., Boston slang), generational (e.g., Gen Z slang), or sociocultural (e.g., LGBTQ+ slang) lines.
