THERE vs. THEIR

Mnemonic Device:

• THERE meaning “in that place.” THEIR meaning “belonging to them.”
  • THERE can be distinguished by, “HERE and THERE.” Therefore, “in that place” is the one ending in the word “here.”

Variation:

• THERE includes the word “HERE,” so it is in that place.
• THEIR includes the word “HEIR,” so it belongs to them.
