2 An apostrophe is never used to form a plural.
3 "Literally" means that it actually happened, not that it figuratively happened.
4 "loose" & "Lose" are two different words.
5 "Your" & "you're" are also two different words.
6 "Their", "there" & "they're" are actually three different words.
7 "Nonplus" does not mean what you think it means.
8 "Affect" is a verb. "Effect" is a noun.
9 "It's" is short for "it is" & "its" means "belonging to it."
10 "Irregardless" is not a word.
