This is my grammar lesson, compiled from that infamous series of bulletins posted earlier today.
Yes, new things has been added.
Now with more drama!
GRAMMAR LESSON!
Your - your house, your mom, your shoes.
You're - Short for "you are". You're stupid.
There - over there, it's there.
Their - their shoes, their hat, their mom
They're - they are; they're stupid idiots
Were - they were nice, his shoes were painted on
We're - we are; we're going to the zoo
Where - where was it, where can we go
(Copypasta'd from FP.)
Also:
-Use words in the correct context:
"I drastically want cheese" is NOT correct!
-Spell things right! If you don't know how, look it up:
"Tomorrow" is NOT spelled "tomarow."
"Maybe" is NOT spelled "mabey."
-Stop using synonyms of words in place of regular words:
"He is lucky."
Does not equate to:
"He is bonanza."
(My reference)
It just makes you look like a stupid kid that bought a thesaurus.
-Commas are your friends, use them well:
If you type like this no one knows when to stop reading so please put periods and commas in your sentences so we know when to stop okay thanks.
-Stop capitalizing every word in a sentence:
It Honestly Makes Me Think You Talk Dramatically Like William Shatner.
-Stop typing like this:
"Ohhh, I loveeee himmm sooo muchhhh!"
It's obnoxious and annoying.
-Or like this:
"SwEeT BaYbEE GuRL!!!"
It looks like your pinky is humping your shift key
-Please, use apostrophes correctly:
"Im" is not a word.
If it were, it would be pronounced "em," like the beginning of the word "impossible."
Don't put apostrophes in strange places either.
"I went to her house, and saw her three cat's," is not correct.
And when you type the words "it's" or "its," please keep in mind that "it's" means "it is," and "its" means...well, "its."
Try changing the "its" in your sentence to "his" and if it doesn't make sense, then go with "it's."
"He'll" is not the same word as "hell."
"She'll" is not the same word as "shell."
See? Apostrophes make a huge difference.
-Use the right "too" or "to," please:
"We went too the movies," is not correct.
"Too" is used when referring to oneself, such as "I would like to go too."
"Too" is also used when referring to amounts, such as "It is too much to handle." or "There is too much salt in the soup."
In any other instance, it is "to," such as "Let's go to the movies," or "She went to the baseball game."
-There is a difference between "then" and "than."
"Then" is only used when referring to time, such as "We had a good time back then."
"Than" is used when comparing things, such as "She has more music than me."
I'd like to thank Caitlin for her wonderful help, and giving me more things to bitch about.
I hope you all are educated now.
Put this knowledge to good use.
