There is a huge difference between It's and Its. An apostrophe is used in 2 cases - 1. Possession. 2. Contraction. Possession - It's - means It is. Contraction - Can't means Cannot. ----------------- It's is always an abbreviation for 'It is'. Ex- It's raining - It is raining. It's a nice day...

"Communicate in Spanish and open the doors to a whole new world"

"Its" is a possessive adjective like his/her in the examples: his car, her book. Whereas "it's" is a short form of it is, similar to this is, that is etc.

It's is always the abbreviation of "it is" as in "It's (= it is) a nice day, isn't it?" Its is the possessive of "it" as in, "That is Morton's puppy but I don't know its name." In the second sentence, its means "belonging to it".

The word it’s is short for ‘it is’ (as in it's raining), or in informal speech, for ‘it has’ (as in it's got six legs). The word its means ‘belonging to it’

It's is the contraction (short form) of 'It is' or 'It has'. For example, It is a very good place = It's a very good place. It's been raining = It has been raining. The word 'its' refers to the possession of something (e.g. an animal, etc). For instance, the cat hit its tail (= the tail of the cat)....

How do you handle the following four persons if they come to you to learn Spoken English? 1.One who knows that he knows. 2.One who knows that he knows not. 3,One who knows not that he knows. 4.One who knows not that he knows not.
Handling will differ from person to person and its an art. If you do an assessment that's the best way because you can have an idea what that person is and can handle the circumstance well.

Has your grand father, grand mother, uncle or aunt ever corrected your Spoken English? In many parts of Tamil Nadu, especially in villages, a car was addressed as a "Pleasure" (during1960s). My father's elder brother worked as a Government Interpreter, English-Tamil-English, in Singapore during British rule and spent half span of his life there with his family. After retirement he settled down in his native town in Tamil Nadu. He used to teach English to youngsters and correct their silly mistakes too. Once we were shouting "Pleasure, pleasure" on seeing a car plying in our town. He explained how the word "Pleasure" originated. Travelling by car is still a pleasure but one used to feel overjoyed in those days. Some educated person called the experience as a "Pleasure" and villagers misinterpreted it and started calling a car a "Pleasure".
Healthy sharing. Way forward
