And I dont mean of we were logically talking about the language etymologically, I mean words that make sense on your brain with a different spelling. Unreasonable stupid spellings.
For me:
- Colledge for college
- Occean for ocean
- Pation for passion
These were mistakes I made as a kid and I get it
Possessive is normally done with an apostrophe. The dog’s toy. The apartment’s lobby.
But when possessive goes on the pronoun “it”? No apostrophe.
Look out for the monster. Its fangs are sharp.
If you put an apostrophe, that’s for “it is”.
This bothers me slightly. There’s history illinonating why it happened, but I don’t like it.
You mean like his and her?
Possessive pronouns don’t use apostrophes.
