Grammatical errors that can make you appear non-professional as a writer, fix these errors and write like a PRO

Every writer wants to be heard, right? That's precisely why they want everyone to read their content.

Imagine writing something out of the world and not having much readers to read your content.

Have you ever been in the same situation, and wondered why?

That's because people don't trust your knowledge, they don't trust your credibility as a writer.

Reason?

Because your content is full of Grammatical errors that make you appear DUMB.

And let me tell you something Grammatical glitches make your writing hard to understand, and turn off your readers immediately.

So, next time when you start writing your blog post, do check for the following errors.

Your and You're

"Your" is a possessive pronoun, used to mainly show ownership or relationship with something, for e.g, your car, your shop, your blog.

Where as "You're" is a contraction for" you are".

Confuse between the above two and your readers will be even more confused than you actually are.

It's and its
Again a very silly mistake that can lose your credibility as a writer if you are not careful.

"It's" is a contraction for "it is" or it has, depending on a tense.

Its is a possessive pronoun, for eg, 'this place has lost its charm."

There and their

There is used for giving reference to a particular place, for instance, "Lets go there," "there is no water," " there's no electricity."

Where as their is a plural possessive pronoun, used to show ownership for more than one person. For e.g, "their cars" or "their bags".

Affect and effect

The thing to remember here is, Affect is a verb, where as "Effect" is a noun. Affect means to influence something, effect means the result and impact of something.

Let me give you an e.g from Google to make it easier for you,

"You can't affect the creepy poem by reading it, but you can enjoy the effect of a talking bird."

Didn't do it versus didn't did it.

This is the most common error I see people making every day.

You shouldn't use two past simple verb forms in the same function of a verb string.

Following are same examples to make it easier for your understanding.

I didn't eat it. (correct)
I didn't ate it. (wrong)
I didn't kill her. (Correct)
I didn't killed her. (wrong)
I didn't steal your money. (correct)
I didn't stole your money. (wrong).
