What's a PITFALL in English grammar?
Can you give an example?

What's the difference between...
"its" and "it's"?

ITS v IT'S

ITS: Indicates possession.

The car isn't working because its engine broke.

IT'S: Short form of "It is" ->"It's".

It's a great car, its engine is super powerful!

The dog broke ...leg.

1. it's
2. its

...a very annoying dog.

1. It's
2. Its

What is the difference between 'your' and 'you're' ?

YOUR v YOU'RE

1. YOUR = means it belongs to someone (possession)
    Is this your book?
   Your friends seem really nice.
2. YOU'RE = Short for "You are" 
   You're late!
   You're so funny!

Wow! Is that ... car?

1. Your
2. You're

I can't believe .... so angry about it!

1. Your
2. You're

What's the difference between 'their', 'there' and 'they're' ?

THEIR v THERE v THEY'RE

1. THEIR = means it belongs to 'them' (possession)
   Example: It is their house. OR: Their hobby is dancing.
2. THERE =  in or at that place 
   Example: There is more than one correct answer. OR: We stayed there for a long time.
3. THEY'RE = they are
   Example: They're amazing friends to me. 

Spain is beautiful. We want to go ..... someday.

1. Their
2. There
3. They're

..... a lovely couple!

1. Their
2. There
3. They're

... room is very tidy. Our room is a mess!

1. Their

I know some pitfalls and I will NEVER use them again.
