Spelling Contractions and Possessive Pronouns
Do not confuse possessive pronouns with contractions.
The words it's, you're and they're are contractions. They each have an apostrophe that stands for a letter that is left out.
The words its, your, and their are possessive pronouns. They DO NOT have apostrophes.
Pay attention when spelling a contraction. Make sure the apostrophe is in the correct place.
