Description
Okay, I am tired of reading original/fan fiction that looks like a two year old wrote it. For those who mix up words, here's a little guide for you, giving you the correct spelling, definition, and used in a sentence.And do NOT comment saying things like "OMGZzzzzz, your so mean!!!oneone!!!sixtyfive!!!". Because I will ignore you. This was made because of my pickyness with literature/prose.
There-in or at that place (She placed the salad over there.)
Their-possessive form of they (The family is eating their dinner.)
They're-contraction of they are (They're busy at the moment.)
Here-in this place (Place the cup here next to me.)
Hear-to perceive sounds (I hear nothing.)
Hour-a period of time (We have one hour of class every day.)
Our-possessive form of we (Our vacation was fun!)
*Are (for people who pronounce "our" the same way)-a form of being (We are going to swim today.)
You're-a contraction of you are (You're annoying me.)
Your-possessive form of you (I found your dog.)

Here's a good sentence, just for the people who have no clue how to use the different spellings of 'there/their/they're'.
They're in their house over there.

MY grammar sucks so many times, but luckily I hired two people who are good at it, to overread my stuff.

Funny enough i write those things right most of the time. And if not i have a checker run it before i post it. my problem is mostly the order of the words. Because in some ways it's very different from Dutch. or just stupid typo's. But for that i also use a checker. i do get it thoug. It bothers me to. That's why i try to keep them out.
