Apostrophe-a-go-go


Photo from Flickr - evidently this place is owned by a guy named Cocktail and his friend Eat.

Grammar nerds rejoice: I've just discovered a site with a lovely flow-chart explaining the proper usage of apostrophes. It makes me happy. I can't tell you how many improperly used apostrophes I've seen. For example, why don't people understand that "its" is a possessive pronoun and "it's" is a contraction of "it is"? - they're different things!



Check out the full site for further enlightenment on the usage of apostrophes.

I'm getting off my horse now...
