  4. To Norman : You’re not really being pedantic pointing out the difference between “its” and “it’s”. There are lots of other things to point out, too, which might help a few, even a many. For example, the difference between “there”, “their”, “they’re” and “there’re”. Lots and lots of trickies with lots of people making mistakes and those who think they know making those “typos” because of tiredness, hurry, or whatever.

  8. Great quiz! 12/12 🙂
    Now I’m going to be pedantic, and point out that in the quiz description, where you say, “English in all it’s forms…” there should be no apostrophe in “it’s” 🙂
    (“it’s” can only stand for “it is”)
