What is the difference between YOU’RE and YOUR in English?
Yes, this is a common mistake even native English speakers have when writing.
In this English lesson we look at this difference in more detail and have included examples of the uses of these homophones (words that sound the same though have a different meaning).
We look at which words commonly come after them.
There is also an example that uses both YOU’RE and YOUR in the same sentence.
We also learn tips about how to remember the difference between YOU’RE and YOUR.
