The 7 Deadly Sins of Spelling
and Punctuation
![Page 14: For Wall Presentation Spelling And Punctuation](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052621/5583b083d8b42af5058b502c/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
1. YOU’RE and YOURYou’re is used to substitute the
words “you are.” Your is a word you use when
referring to something that belongs to the person you’re
speaking to. “Your purse,” “your coat,” and so on—and not “Your
late!” or “Your wrong!”

2. IT’S and ITS
It’s (with an apostrophe) replaces “It is” or “It has.” (It’s easy to remember!)
Its (with no apostrophe) refers to something that
belongs to “it.” (Its meaning is clear!)

3. THEY’RE, THEIR, and THERE
They’re is short for “They are.”
Their refers to something that belongs to “them.” And there is simply “not
here.” “They’re going to their
house, which is over there.”

4. LOOSE and LOSE
When what you want to say is the opposite of find, then lose the extra O.
Loose (with two o’s) is the opposite of tight.

5. ALOT
If you’ve ever written this non-word, what you probably meant was either a lot (meaning “many”) or allot (to ration or allocate).

6. IRREGARDLESS
Hundreds of people use this word (often with passion!), both in speech and writing, everyday—but the truth is, it doesn’t exist!
The real word is regardless.

7. TO and TOO
When you mean “overly,” please remember to add the extra O—or face the consequences. I once received a heated text message that was meant to make me angry: “TO BAD!” it shouted in loud, aggressive capitals. I ended up in uncontrollable giggles instead. Too bad indeed.

Guilty? Don’t sweat it. Its nothing to loose sleep over. Your not to bad. Their are alot of people in the same boat, irregardless of what you may think. Just get ahold of you’reself, take a few mental notes, and move on from here.
