Ok, I'll admit now I am not going to win any spelling B's so I will have a guess.  Is it 'cannot' should be 'can not'?

No, either are correct. A lot of people have problems with "your", "you're" and the like.

"to," "two," "too";  their, there, and they're.. etc.

Ah, so 'while you're dead'

Reeverbs tips of the day: When do I use your or you're?

Replace 'your'/'you're' with 'you are'.
If it screws up the sentence then use: Your.
If the sentence still makes sense, use: You're.


But when do I use they're, their or there?
Replace they're, their or there with they are.
If the sentence still makes sense use: They're.
The difference between their and there: There means something is not here. Their means something belongs to them.


Thank you.

It is a sad day for English speaking countries when the Dutch correct us on our grammar.

Not true, you'd be surprised that those who learn English as a second language talk in a very proper tone. It's like when people who learn a different language learn the correct way to say everything instead of the slang.

EDIT-

As for the OP, I'd dig up the Grammar Police award, but I'm too lazy.
