it's = shortening of it is

its = possessive

"It's a very cold day"

"We have found its purpose"

I have a tedious trick to finding the right way, if "it is" sounds awkward then you use "its".

My english is actually excellent but it's like a million percent based on what sounds right so things that don't sound different are awkward for me sometimes.

I've been guilty of "should of" before ROFL

its/it's
you're/your
etc

aren't exactly what I would call obscure. But it's the kind of stuff that is weird to judge as a foreigner since you ussually focus a lot more on grammar.

plansix regularly messes this one up and it tilts me

yea im way too spergy to not know all the grammar rules perfectly

edit: rofl i just realized i split an infinitive there... oh well i think split infinitives are fine. it's one of those victorian-era "everyone's literate now so high society must make up extra rules to distinguish itself" rules i think. especially because "to not x" can have a distinct meaning from "not to x"

everyone is singular, so "Not everyone is a native speaker."

their are some people that pick it up fast, and they're are others that take a while. i think what rocketbear is saying is that as long as your trying you're best to learn, that's what counts.

I'm trying to get worse at English so I can ignore certain things
I'm also trying to get worse at Chinese so people treat me like a white man when I'm in China

The weather today is 78 degrees and sunny, as it has been for the past 2 months
When in doubt, just believe in yourself and press buttons

i feel like if you're a white man you'll get treated like a white man no matter how good your chinese is, and if you're chinese-looking but bad at chinese, you just get treated like a retard (my life qq)

As long as you can read a newspaper in English you are fine for fluency imo.

Well "its" is weird because it's the only one where the possessive doesn't have an apostrophe.

English sucks. I'm glad I'm a native speaker and everyone else has to learn my retarded language.
