Their, they're, there

They're
They're is a shortened version of they are. (The apostrophe replaces the letter a.) Only use they're if you can substitute it with they are.

Their
Their is used to show possession. It is just like my, your, his, her, its, and our. (These are called possessive adjectives.) Here is a little trick: use the word our instead of their. If the sentence still makes sense, then their is almost certainly correct. This trick works because our and their are both possessive adjectives used for plurals.

There
The word there is similar to the word here in that it represents a place. It has two main uses: (1) it is a specified place (like in the first example below), and (2) it is an unspecified place (like in the second example). Also, like in the second and third examples, the word there can be used to show that something exists.


Their you go! I hope this helps y'all. (Especially @Madii )

 

Glad their are threads correcting people about these.



I CANT HELP IT OMG

 

It's irritating when people use the wrong 'there'. But I don't think a single thread will suddenly make these people understand.
Nice thread btw.

 

theyre splling mistaks in dis thred

 

And unfortunately, when you grow up and have adult friends on Facebook, people still massacre their, there, and they're. All.The.Time.

 

I wonder if "there" right about this?

 

interesting

 

same

 

their are some people who think there so smart
;D

 

lol at the people who think there smart with they're incorrect grammar

 

can we lol at them later tonight?

 

I wish that people could tell the difference, but sadly I don't think that there ever going to get it.

 

I think most of people do not care about their grammar over an internet game/forums

 

I do.
In my opinion people that use there grammar not rightly is bad.

 

Grammer* lol your dumb
