If you're as picky about grammar as I am, you probably caught my purposeful play on words in this post's title.
Common errors:
Then vs than
You're vs your
Effect vs affect
They're vs their vs there
It's vs its
I understand that these are common mistakes, but mistakes are meant to be corrected. A lot of times spell check will not catch some of these errors, so it is up to you to proofread. To me, the worst is when people make these mistakes in text messages because some words are just not meant to be in text language and you can tell when it's not on purpose. Also, if read aloud, it's pretty easy to hear right from wrong. Am I being picky?...
