Which corrects the incorrect pronoun or contraction in the sentence? Do you have the courage to follow you're dreams? A. your B. you'er C. yours D. you are

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

@confluxepic

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

@Joel_the_boss

JoelTheBoss (joel_the_boss):

Why would you say A?

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

sorry i made a guess :(

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

Ok. @brucebaner

JoelTheBoss (joel_the_boss):

No It's fine would you like me to explain the difference for all 4 options?

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

You're is in between two words.

JoelTheBoss (joel_the_boss):

the ' usally represent the missing letter or letters.

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

B?

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

No.

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

It wants us to correct it. I never heard of you'er.

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

No.

JoelTheBoss (joel_the_boss):

ok You'er is an example of this. the ' represents the two missing letters. So if I were to separate them I would have you 'er . So it would mean you were. Am I explain right?

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

D would be: Do you have the courage to follow you are dreams?

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

Does it sound right?

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

Yes.

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

so A

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

Your last guess was correct.

JoelTheBoss (joel_the_boss):

D is not right :P "Do you have the courage to follow you are dreams?" SO we have 2 options eliminated.

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

im so sorry for guessing im not really good at gum im so sorry :(

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

It's okay.

JoelTheBoss (joel_the_boss):

NO! It's fine! :D That's why were here. :)

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

Just read the sentence aloud.

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

And you will get it.

OpenStudy (hannaha):

True @Joel_the_boss guessing helps eliminate the wrong answers

JoelTheBoss (joel_the_boss):

English is similar to math. Lets say the sentence is the original problem and you trying to find X, just plug in the options for x until you have it correct. :)
