Learn It & Love It

Your = Denotes ownership. Example -  "Is that your beer?"

You're = Contraction of you are. Example - "You're sure there's no more beer?"

Thanks for playing along.

ps- Don't even get me started on There/They're/Their

If you point it out their probably thinking that your two smart for you're own good. :-)

My blog is riddled with those errors. Please read phonetically.

PS: Your category links aren't working.

THANK YOU!! People confusing the two is one of my biggest pet peeves - its not that hard! :) Miss you chickadee...

MY personal grammatical peeve is using an apostrophe to make something plural. I see it on business signs all the time!!

I'm a nut about that stuff, too...although, I'm more of an apostrophe nut. The sad part is that, when I'm really tired, I tend to make the their/they're, your/you're typos. I don't proofread unless it's professional writing...so I've been known to reread comments and post additional comments correcting my mistakes. Ugh!
