Get Help With English Here

There's three there's.

There:location, as denoted by the "here" at the end.

Their:possessive, as denoted by the "heir" at the end.

They're:contraction of "they" and "are" as denoted by the apostraphe.

That concludes our mnemonic lesson for today.

Minor hole to poke in that: although "they" can have an heir (a descendant who inherits stuff), it doesn't have anything to do with the word.

Also, "there's" means "there is", and is patently incorrect when talking about plurals; "there're" means "there are".

EDIT: I should've checked the context first thing.

And they treat their own creator like trash, killing him and betraying him over and over again, to the point that The Doctor tells Davros that the Daleks are keeping him as a pet.

@Puffluff: What page is this from?

The Doctor Compete Monster page that wasn't edit blocked.

bump?

Why are you bumping? You've gotten three different replies. All of them are acceptable.

Artemis 92 ask me what page my post was going to so I answered it but never got a replay.

Should be

I saw what page you said it was. I was just curious. Link, for my own convenience.

EDIT: Does this page even exist?

EDIT2: Found it. Monster.Doctor Who. It still says "they" instead of "their."

By no means is he a villain, and he has his moments,

just say doens't change the fact he was a compete womanizer,

but that doesn't change the fact that he is a complete womanizer,

Also "Mosbay" should be spelled "Mosby".

I wasn't sure about that. I don't watch the show. Thanks.

Corrected.

I speak English well enough, Unfortunately I also have mild Asperger's Syndrome and sometimes I act like I have ADHD (Though I have not been diagnosed with ADHD) that makes me rush when I'm editing and get sloppy and careless with my grammer.

I speak English well enough,Unfortunately (should be lower case "u") I also have mild Asperger's Syndrome and sometimes I act like I have ADHD (Though (should be lowercase "t") I have not been diagnosed with ADHD) (should be a period here)

that (should be capital "T") makes me rush when I'm editing and (should be ",and I" here get sloppy and careless with my grammer (should be grammar).

I'd have put a comma behind Syndrome. Sometimes needs to be wrapped in them. First ADHD should be followed by a comma as well. But I might over comma, I blame the southern drawl.

I'll agree with the one behind Syndrome. Sometimes doesn't need one, and the one behind ADHD is optional.

...I also have mild Asperger's Synrome and, sometimes, I act like I have ADHD...

OK, I'm beginning to think maybe I should just give up being a member since I'm clearly far too scatterbrained to have perfect spelling grammar and punctuation.

You don't have to give up. We have lots of contributing users who are worse with English than you. They mostly stick to the forums, and either get help when they want to post examples, or just ask a friend to do it for them.

Post what you want to add here and we'll give you a hand. That's exactly what this thread is for.

Thanks for being so helpful everybody...I'll consider my options.

By the way I added a work of my own Space Beasts Some of the stories are on Furaffinity.Net others are on writing.com but many of them are scripts I've written on Final Draft that I couldn't put online even if I wanted to (The computer the has the scripts lost its ability to connect to the internet quite a few years ago.} Anyway I'm going to attend a school for people with disabilities who want to make movies, and if a play cards right I could make it into an actual animated series/comic book/whatever.

So I'd like to ask my fellow troper's opinions based on what I was able to put on the Space Beasts page does it sound like a story you would like to watch/read/whatever? I try to make my stories as entertaining as possible,

OK I'll take you up on that...Here is a something you can add to the Fartillery page in Web Original or Troper Works

Fartillery: Zander learns the hard way that when Aves eat certain kinds of mushrooms their farts have certain magical effects like causing wormholes to appear in random places, turning sickness to health or just smelling so bad they can knock out a full grown Crocodile Man.

First, there's nothing in this to identify the work. That needs to be added. Second, we'll show you what needs to be fixed and make the edits for now. After you've demonstrated that you're going to keep working on your grammar, punctuation and capitalization, we'll ask to have the ban lifted so that you can make the edits yourself. Okay?

Fartillery: needs the work name. The only 'Zander' I know by name is from Buffy and this doesn't sound like it's from that show. Zander learns the hard way that when Aves eat certain kinds of mushrooms needs a comma here their farts have certain — don't need "certain" magical effects needs a comma here, too like causing wormholes to appear in random places, turning sickness to health Comma here, too or just smelling so bad they can knock out a "full grown" should be either "fully grown" or "full-grown" Crocodile Man.

The comma after "turning sickness to health" is optional; it's ok to skip it if you want. The comma between the second-to-last item in a list and the conjunction is called an "Oxford Comma" and whether you use it or not is a matter of personal preference. I prefer to use it, so I'll usually flag it if you don't. Other posters don't use it and will either point out that it's unnecessary, or let it go if you don't use it. It's up to you to use it or not, just be consistent.

The intro to Space Beasts sounds rather fun. I'd probably check it out.

I once went to a performance of CATS while in on vacation Palm Desert and the Actor who was playing Rum Tum Tugger had Zander as his first name.

Also I really don't know much about Buffy the Vampire Slayer

Hopeless.
