There, their, they’re – it sounds
like I just said one word three
times but those are actually three
different words. In this lesson, I
will show you how to use these
confusing words correctly. As
always, there is a quiz at the end
of the video to test your
understanding. Now before we talk
about the use of these words, a
quick note on pronunciation: all
three of these are pronounced
/ðer/ the pronunciation is the
same, keep that in mind. OK, so
let’s talk about the first word –
‘t’ ‘h’ ‘e’ ‘r’ ‘e’. This word is
an adverb which means ‘that
place’. Take this sentence – “The
restaurant is over there.” It
means the restaurant is in that
place. So this is the opposite of
‘here’ which means ‘in this
place’. In fact, you can easily
remember this spelling – ‘t’ ‘h’
‘e’ ‘r’ ‘e’ – if you notice that
it has ‘here’ inside of it. Now,
the word ‘there’ has another
common use. This is to introduce
the subject of a sentence. For
example, “There are four apples in
the bag.” You see that the subject
of the sentence is really ‘apples’
and ‘there’ is just used as a
dummy subject to introduce
‘apples’. These are the two uses
of there with ‘t’ ‘h’ ‘e’ ‘r’ ‘e’.
Let’s move on to the second word –
‘their’ spelled ‘t’ ‘h’ ‘e’ ‘i’
‘r’. This word is the possessive
form of ‘they’. What does
possessive mean? Well, it means
that the word shows ownership or
relationship. Here’s a chart
showing these forms. The
possessive form of ‘I’ is ‘my’.
For ‘you’ it’s ‘your’, ‘we’ –
‘our’, ‘he’ – ‘his’, ‘she’ –
‘her’, ‘it’ – ‘its’ and for ‘they’
it’s ‘their’. Here’s an example:
“The children took their toys
outside to play.” In this
sentence, ‘their’ shows ownership
– the toys belong to the children.
And in the next sentence:
“Teachers should be friendly to
their students.”, ‘their’ shows
relationship here – obviously,
teachers don’t own their students.
This spelling can be easily
remembered if you see that the
possessive forms ‘your’, ‘our’,
‘her’ and ‘their’ all have an ‘r’
and the ‘r’ is the last letter in
these words. OK, let’s now move on
to the last word, ‘they’re’
spelled ‘t’, ‘h’, ‘e’, ‘y’,
apostrophe, ‘r’, ‘e’. The
apostrophe should tell you
immediately that this is a
contraction – that is we have
shortened and combined two words,
which are ‘they’ and ‘are’. This
form is used in two ways – the
first is when ‘are’ is used as a
linking verb with a noun or
adjective. For example, “They’re
dancers.” “They’re tired.” What
I’m saying here is “They are
dancers.” and “They are tired” but
again, when we speak naturally, we
just say ‘they’re’. The second use
is with a verb in its –ing form.
In this use, ‘are’ is a helping
verb. Here’s a sentence: “They’re
playing football in the garden.”
This means “They are playing
football in the garden” and it’s
in the present continuous tense.
It shows an action that is
happening right now. You can
remember this spelling with the
apostrophe which shows that there
are two words combined – ‘they’
and ‘are’. OK let’s do a quick
recap. ‘T’ ‘h’ ‘e’ ‘r’ ‘e’ means
‘that place’ and the key to
remember it is that the word has
‘here’ inside of it. ‘T ’ ‘h’ ‘e’
‘i’ ‘r’ is the possessive form of
‘they’. The key to remember is
that the forms ‘our’, ‘your’,
‘her’ and ‘their’ end with the
letter ‘r’. And finally, ‘t’ ‘h’
‘e’ ‘y’ apostrophe ‘r’ ‘e’ means
‘they are’ and the key is that the
apostrophe shows the contraction
of the two words. Alright, it’s
now time for the quiz to see if
you can use the three spellings
correctly. There are six sentences
on the screen. In each one, I want
you to fill in the blanks with the
correct word. Stop the video,
think about your answers, then
play the video again and check.
Alright, here are the answers. Let
me know how many you got correct
in the comments. If you’re not
