THERE THEIR THEY'RE | Common English Spelling + Pronunciation Mistakes

Hello, guys.

My name is Fanny.

And in this video, we’re going to focus on ‘there’.

The word, ‘there’.

it has three different forms, and they’re quite confusing for students.

Now, we’re going to talk about spelling mistakes and pronunciation mistakes.

Ok, just so you know.

Now the first sentence, There is a house.

It is the very basic for ‘there is’ in English to show something.

If we take the second sentence, It’s their house.

It’s a different form of ‘their’.

In this case, as you probably know, it’s the possessive.

Ok?

The house belongs to them.

It’s their house.

And in the third sentence, They’re in the house.

It’s obviously the contraction of the verb, ‘to be’, so

They are in the house.

Ok, so three different forms.

Now, listen very carefully.

I’m going to pronounce the three forms.

There Their They're

Now, can you hear a difference?

I can’t.

There is no difference, guys.

The pronunciation is exactly the same.

And because the pronunciation is the same, many students gets confused when they write.

And they make spelling mistakes.

Ok?

So be really careful when you write.

You have to know whether it’s the basic form ‘there is’,

The possessive adjective, ‘there’, or the contraction of ‘they are’.

This is very important not to make spelling mistakes.

And when you pronounce them, don’t make it more complicated than it is.

The sound is exactly the same.

Ok, guys.

Back to our listening test now.

Am I saying number one, number two, or number three?

Listen very carefully.

There / Their / They’re.

What do you think?

Well I hope after watching my video, you now know

that is can be number one, number two, or number three.

Because the pronunciation is always the same.

Ok?

I hope you really understand.

And I hope this helps you.

See you in the next videos.
