For my spelling geek brothers and sisters...

Someone at Fox News failed to proofread their content. Note the word "THIER" underlined in red above.

There vs. They're vs. Their vs. Thier Their house is over there. They're going to their house. There is only one way to get there. Spelling their correctly (not thier) is a different problem. Unfortunately, it's one of those words that, as you stare at it for a while, looks wrong with either spelling. As with separate/seperate, think er = error:

[SIZE=+1]Think: er = error:[/SIZE] [SIZE=+1]their[/SIZE] [SIZE=+1]=[/SIZE] [SIZE=+1]correct[/SIZE] [SIZE=+1]thier[/SIZE] [SIZE=+1]=[/SIZE] [SIZE=+1]error[/SIZE]

Loose vs. Lose | Separate vs. Seperate | There vs. They're vs. Their vs. Thier | It's vs Its | Lay vs. Lie

From Re-vision / Spelling / There vs. They're vs. Their vs. Thier​
