Why Can't Anyone Spell?

I need help with my ,'s(where the hell do I put them?) and the witch's.(witch? wich? what?) Also when you write in () do you start with a capital and end with or dot?. How about the word after () do you start with a capital? :helpsmile:

SG, when you're speaking about something that belongs to someone singular, (the possessive) you use an apostrophe before the "s". When you're speaking in the plural about something that belongs to a group of people you would use the apostrophe after the "s".

When you use parentheses, you would use them to contain a separate statement within the statement you are making. You don't need a comma before you open your brackets or a capital letter for that matter (though it does help if try to keep the content of your brackets concise without meandering into extraneous punctuation).

It's called a comma. Use it to indicate natural pauses in a sentence. Think of how you would speak to someone and how your voice automatically rests as each point is made.

Should there be a comma between thank you and "BOY"?

What the hell is up with the internet??

People say addicting games - Its addictive you idiots&#33;&#33;&#33;

You should have inserted a comma between "addictive" and "you". [/b][/quote]
Not only that, but he/she (I don&#39;t know what gender is the cat) should have written "it&#39;s" or "it is" instead od "its".
