Day 11 - Grammar and Spelling Mistakes that Make Me Crazy

1. Misuse of to, too and two.
2. Misuse of there, their, and they’re
3. Misuse of were and where
4. Misuse of which and witch
5. Misuse of then and than
6. Misuse of your and you’re
7. Misuse of sit and set
8. Misuse of lay and lie (though this one can be dicy)
9. Flustrated is not a real word. Yes, it appears in a few dictionaries but it is really just a mistaken use of the words frustrated and/or flustered.
10. Definate is not a word; it’s definite.

It was hard to stop at ten!
