    Mk, so one of my biggest pet peeves is when people use the wrong "your". EA_Sharks is about to break it down:
    Your - a possessive adjective to show belonging, i.e. Your coat is very soft.
    You're - contraction of the words "you" and "are", i.e. You're so kind!

    PLEASE, before you type "your" or "you're" say it aloud to yourself without the contraction:
    i.e. You are coat is very soft - doesn't make sense? Use your!
    i.e. You are so kind - makes sense? Use you're!

    Thank you to those who actually took the time to read this,

    You play Minecraft. You're a nerd.

    Shouldn't have used a comma in the bracket. Replace it with a semicolon. :3

    I love the fact that the title of this thread is grammar lesson, and you start the thread with "mk"... Sorry had to point that out. Anyways, thanks for making a thread on this, even if you're just screwing around on the internet everyone should be able to use "you're" and "your" properly. That and "there", "their", and "they're". Also, a fun video (sorry for bad language in video):

    I would usually say that most people can't be bothered to use completely perfect grammar, but honestly I think most people genuinely don't even grammar.

    Eh I don't think anyone can be bothered to do anything perfectly. Same here though, I don't think most people know how to use proper grammar.

    That would be spelling not grammar would it not?

  23. That, too, is incorrect grammar. There should be a comma after "Sorry", unless the subject of the sentence is somebody named "Sorry". :3

    That it would, I was just making the point if you're going to give out lessons on the English language spelling would add to your lesson. Sorry if I made it sound that way, because you're right grammar and spelling are different.

    No, no. Don't be sorry. Thanks for using the right "you're" :p

    Nice session on Adverbs, here is how I like to think of it.

    The adverb modifys the Verb or even another adverb.

    For example

    You is the verb

    Add r (the adverb)

    And you get your
