Hello everyone, and welcome.
We're all college/students/graduates/former attendees here. We should all know the difference between your/you're and there/their/they're.
So Jen, what's your excuse?

Can anyone pick out what she did wrong? She used "your" instead of "you're." If the contractions throw you off, don't use them. If you don't use them, then you're guaranteed to get the right "your" every time, and you increase your chance of getting the right "there/their" right to 50%.
In other words, she should have said:
Quote : | "You are not going to fight about me?/You're not going to fight about me?" |
Please keep this in mind kids, and remember:
Won't you please be my neighbor?
