    "your" means "belonging to you".

    "you're" is the correct abbreviation of " you are".

    Common mistake these days - I blame years of poor educational standards and "text speak".
    I suppose I should be grateful that you didn't just put "UR"...

    Love, peace and correct grammar !

    If your unsure the above could be pasted into Translate your txt messages to and from texting\chat language and use the translater to put into plain english those messages written in code eg computer jargon, legalese ,Spanglish and anything that looks like gobbledygook to you for it in old fashioned English.

  4. Dear Sir, that's not actually an abbreviation, it's called a 'contraction'...

    "Abbreviation"  [uh-bree-vee-ey-shuhn]
    Part of Speech: noun
    Definition: something shortened
    Synonyms: abridgement, abstract, abstraction, clipping, compendium, compression, condensation, contraction, digest, outline, precis, reduction, sketch, summary, syllabus, synopsis
    Antonyms: augmentation, enlargement, expansion, extension, increase

    The term "contraction" refers to a specific sort of abbreviation. The fact remains "you're" is an abbreviated form of the wording "you are" and is therefore, in a general sense, an abbrevaition...
     
  8. Sounds like the Eu economy or Rossi's recent podiums. Now that's a contraction.

    Soon to become a recession on the Rossi front.:frown:
     
  9. Oh the irony.

  13. Very,very sad way to end the site and not the way any of its users would have liked.
     
  14. Not this week Phil 
     
  15. I never thought I would say this but you are right. I loved the Ducatisti site but this is just as good and it all works really easily. So well done Rob and thanks good to be home.

    Yes, I know !
     
  18. Pinkoleftyfaggotcarpetmuncher. See there are some advantages to. This forum.
    Ducatisti has closed, Dan and his admin assistants did an excellent job running the site, info and money was freely given by people with a common interest. Dans circumstances changed and he shut the site. I am grateful for the time and effort put in my all members and I'm sure that tradition of helping out other members will continue on here.
    Would have been nice to have some warning but from Dans point of view as already mentioned imagine his inbox.
    The king is dead long live the king......
