There, Their, & They’re What’s the difference???
2
THERE This form of the word will mostly be used as an adjective. (we’ll learn those soon); however, it can also be used as a pronoun. It will be used to show placement or location.
3
EXAMPLES : My brother lives over there. We will go there soon. I saw a boy playing with his dog in the dog park. Can we go there? No one wants to go in there because they think the house is haunted.
4
THEIR This form is used as a plural possessive PRONOUN. This is used to show possession or ownership.
5
EXAMPLES : I’m not going to their house. Someone told me it’s haunted. Their football is deflated because the dog was chewing on it. Their dog is very playful.
6
THEY’RE This form is a contraction. A contraction is two words that are combined as one using an apostrophe. In this case They’re= THEY ARE. It is used as a plural PRONOUN.
7
EXAMPLES: They’re going to go into the house even though we told them it’s haunted. They’re going to have to buy a new football because this one is now ruined.
8
Speaking of Contractions… THERE’S Is a contraction meaning -- THERE IS This is still referring to POSITION/LOCATION Example: There’s the Eiffel Tower.
