English lesson for the day
A long time ago I devised a formula to help with the three different spellings of a word that sounds the same but has three different meanings. I thought I would pass it on.
ThERE = hERE, everywhERE thEIr = hErs, hIs They'RE= they aRE Trivial I know but I figure that's o.k. as I have my flame suit on.

they're not three different spellings of a word. "there" is not a homonym...
they're three different words.. and in one case a contraction! derp..
