What's the problem with "their - they're"?
I don't get why people do that mistake -.-
Okay it sounds similar, but besides... it's totally different.

Using ' shows missing letters.

"They're" means "they are", only without the "a".

"Their" shows possession. (It's their car) compared to (They're sad) (or "they are sad")

Then, because English sucks, there is "there" which indicates a place. (The hill is over there)

The people that mainly get those mixed up are those whose native language isn't English and/or
haven't had much schooling in other world languages.

Yeah I know that I don't think I've ever done that mistake.
And ILikeHacking has an american internet provider... -.-

And Bart is american

In Germany I don't give hobos anything. They get more than enough from the government and that they're living on the street only proves they're wasting all their money for alcohol.

HAM!

That article is good in grammar. And with a lot of combined sentence it's a good article. It's just wasn't Bart's style. Bart quoted it from another forums.
Since Bart or me or many users in this forums doesn't really have wrote any article as good as that. lol
I was showing you that such a good article "shouldn't" have written by any of us.
:p
Same to another article "written" by weirdones to about map protection. Combined sentences, good grammar, etc... and it should be quoted from other forums I bet.
haha
whatever.

They get more than enough from the government and that they're living on the street only proves they're wasting all their money for alcohol.
HAM!

There are grammatical errors. And this is what seems normal. It's our style.

This is kind of unfounded. The only way I see to improve the sentence written there is by doing this:

"They get more than enough from the government, and the fact that they're still living on the street(s) only proves that they're wasting all their money for alcohol."

Very few mistakes. Dekar is also German, so bonus points for that.

Yeah thanks... 3 mistakes per sentence is fine right... -.-

yeah. My teacher told me not to care about grammars. (what a bad english teacher. lol)
