How do you console a english teacher?

There, Their, They're.


P.S. I'd be willing to bet over 50% of magats couldn't pick the correct spelling to put in a sentence.

And if you explained to them, those words are called "homophones", they'd think you were talking about the LGBTQ community. Idiots, all of them!

4. I greatly admired my English and Debate Instructors

Your errors were obvious for all the world to see and read draw attention to. Did I just make one? Our Debate Instructor was loved and hated at the same time. Do not get up in practice and make a grammatical error when she was in the back of her class listening to every word. Actually I greatly cherished her, still do even though it’s been 55 years. Yeah, Speke write, it’s impident to comunkashun and othir stuff.

5. Most people, like TV news anchors, sportscasters,

constantly misuse the plural in place of the singular. Example;

The Steeler's management do not have their shit together, is wrong, twice wrong.

The Steeler's management does not have its shit together is correct.

The team is taking the field hoping to win their 5th game in a row is wrong.

Everyone I talk to here will not give me their opinion, is wrong.
