Professor Profissionalš« 3 Common Grammar Mistakes You Might Be Making āļø
Grammar mistakes happen to the best of us! Here are three common errors that often slip through the cracksāand how to avoid them.
1. Confusing Your vs. You're
š Your is a possessive pronoun, while you're is a contraction of "you are." Mixing these up is super common, but easy to fix!
Example:
ā "Your going to love this movie."
ā
"You're going to love this movie."
2. Misusing Their, There, and Theyāre
š These homophones can be tricky!
Their = Possessive (belongs to them)
There = Refers to a place
Theyāre = Contraction of "they are"
Example:
ā "There going to bring their dog over here."
ā
"Theyāre going to bring their dog over there."
3. Mixing Up Then vs. Than
š Then refers to time or sequence, while than is used for comparisons.
Example:
ā "She is taller then her brother."
ā
"She is taller than her brother."
š” Quick Tip: Pay close attention to context when using these wordsāsmall changes make a big difference!
