Ralphie ★ Posted September 24, 2022 Share #1 Posted September 24, 2022 I NEVER used to eff that up, but now I find it occasionally in a post first draft and as I fix it I worry for the state my brian, which is bad enough being in New Jersey. OTH, if you ever see me eff up lose/loose or your/you're , it is most likely intentional., Oh yeah, their/there/they're probably is too, just at a subconscious level. Yeah, that's it! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The apostrophe mark originates in Petrarch, though. He’s an Italian writer. So, it’s more like a Don than a pubah. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groupw Posted September 24, 2022 Share #11 Posted September 24, 2022 I have this problem too. I think sometimes autocorrect changes something not understanding the context. I have re-read items after posting and I know I used the right version, but it’s no longer right. Other times I catch my self starting to use the wrong one.
