- Your vs. You're. It's not you're book. It's your book.
- There vs. Their vs. They're. It's not "according to James, it's they're fish." It's "according to James, it's their fish."
- Lack of Commas. It's not "Sweetz walked into the kitchen ate some food then drank some water." It's "Sweetz walked into the kitchen, ate some food, then drank some water."
