Grammar Cop: "it's, its"

I kant get 'round that speling of consonant.

"Cop", damn, I was physically attacked by my English theacher for using such a word once.

That was a typo, hopefully it wouldn't involve physical violence.

i always thought "'tis" was "this"

interesting thread.......

First: I'm disappointed that this is the only mistake you found in my question. It hurt me to write it as I did, so please try again.

Second: Consonant*

Think of "'tis (it is) the season to be jolly..."

Grammar!!

Men write... Woman, without her man, is nothing.

Women write... Woman! Without her, man is nothing.

Woman, without! Her; man "i,s noth.in?g

Double negatives are a real no-no.

I am not unfamiliar with the word litotes.

I see what you did t̶h̶e̶i̶r̶,̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶y̶'̶r̶e̶,̶ ̶ there.

I didn't see it until you said that. Nice one.

I must admit, I am a sucker for good grammar.

My unsolicited grammar tip of the day: 'who' is for people and 'that' is for things...  eg. I have a friend who is cool and a dog that is clever.

I contend a dog is also a "who". I have a pen that is not clever.

Out in the pasture the nature watcher watches the catcher.

While the catcher watches the pitcher who pitches the balls.

Whether the temperature's up or whether the temperature's down, the nature watcher, the catcher and the pitcher are always around.

The pitcher pitches, the catcher catches and the watcher watches.

So whether the temperature's rises or whether the temperature falls the nature watcher just watches the catcher who's watching the pitcher who's watching the balls.
