Explanation:

See section 2.1.3. Sometimes people confuse homophones, which are words that sound alike but have different spellings and/or meanings, for example they're/there/their. "They're" is a contraction for "they are." Remember that "there" refers to place. "Their" is a plural third-person pronoun possessive.
