[QUOTE="Danny Tanner, post: 2270869, member: 10619"] Are you saying that you personally get these confused or that their misuse irritates you as well? If the former, you used "you're" correctly. Either way, here's a quick way to help remember: Your = yours, mine, his, hers, etc. It shows possession. "That is your gun." You're = Contraction of "you are". You wouldn't say, "That is you are gun." Same with their/there/they're Their = Possession. "That is their gun." There = Place. "The gun is over there on the table." They're = Contraction of "they are". Just like "you're", you wouldn't say "That is they are gun" or "The gun is over they are on the table." [/QUOTE]
