It's short for 2 words "you are"

"Can I ask what you're doing here?"

If it belongs to you, then it's *yours.
*
"Thats yours not mine"

There. It's really not that hard!!! 🙈🤷‍♀️

OP, you're going to get shredded for not putting this in Pedants' Corner. I agree with you though, as it's jarring to read the incorrect form.

It's short for 2 words, that is.

You’ll be shredded…but I do agree.

Aren't you supposed to commit an error in your rant about grammar? A fine example of Muphry's Law! 😆

Reminds me of the difference between

knowing your shit
and
knowing you're shit.

pictish · 11/07/2022 08:20

Ohhh ha ha just saw OP’s error. Love. Good example of true irony because they are rare. Thank you. 😆

LizBennet · 11/07/2022 08:20

It clearly is "that" hard for some, if so many are making the mistake?

onelittlefrog · 11/07/2022 08:21

It is always quite funny when people who make these posts have errors in their own grammar 😅

No. It's Muphry's Law.

Look it up.

BobbinThreadbare123 · 11/07/2022 08:30

That's exactly the joke @Bluebellbike 🙂

And there is a difference between "he's" and "his"

It's NOT "his gone to the shop"

Seeing that so often now.

Oh God, I hate this one

‘Been’ for ‘being’ seems quite prevalent now too.

’It’s just kids been kids’ or similar.
