Pretty odd contraction seeing as it has the same number of symbols ... just a space between them 🙂

Sadly, there are a lot of people who think that would the plural of "it"  But why would you want to say it is twice ? Or does mean it is is. Nope still don't get it. /cretin mode on (always)

Drift Alert! Remember - it's is short for it is! But also legitimate as the possesive of whatever the it is. Unfortunately not Nick!  Probably the only occasion when it is not possessive. "It's is a contraction and should be used where a sentence would normally read "it is." The apostrophe indicates that part of a word has been removed. Its with no apostrophe, on the other hand, is the possessive word, like "his" and "her," for nouns without gender." Humour, thread drift and education! I didn't know that Graham, many thanks Nick

Nope still don't get it. /cretin mode on (always) Alistair, I refer to those who, for example, insist on putting " 's" (e.g. car's) rather than just adding an "s" to the end of a word (e.g. cars - which is the plural of car). Just as bad are those that add 's, instead of the correct "ies", e.g. universities (correct, but they write university's - which means belong to a university). Things that were drummed into me during school English lessons (and by my folks  ).
