   Ten Most Commonly Misused/ Mistaken Words
   
   1. Then, than
   2. Its, it's
   3. to, too, two
   4. Your, you're
   5. Where, were, we're
   6. There, their, they're
   7. An, a, and
   8. Off, of
   9. Here, hear
   10. Lose, loose
   
   Now I know that some of these are hard to miss, but it happens sometimes. The one that is misused the most is number 6- there, their, and they're.
   
   This is just a reference- we will post here sometimes with more stuff... once I find out the most commonly misspelled words, I will post those too... so watch for them!
   
   Edit by Poem: if you would like to add to this list post the words below.

   Me again, with the Most Commonly Misspelled Words study. It tells you which words are misspelled the most, and how often they are misspelled in a percentage. It's an actual study apparently
   
   Also! Here is 10 flagrant grammar mistakes that make you look stupid. It's an interesting article I found (and read ) about some grammar mistakes that really shouldn't be made.
   
   So! That's it. I've unlocked this forum/ announcement thing to make it so you guys could post any interesting things you've found too. Have a great day!
   
   (and don't forget to use proper grammar while having it )
