BTW, @err, the thread title should read "*Whose Hot Sauce is this?" and not "Who's Hot Sauce is this?"
- Who is Hot Sauce? Is this?sarahfailin
- Who is "Hot Sauce is this?"chukkaphob
- Who Sauce? <--- Pidgin English from Hawaii Dats Why!bzsaw
- That mistake is an easy one. The apostrophe s is also used to denote ownership. chukka's is not chukka is.monospaced
- So who's can be read as something owned by that who.monospaced
- No, I don't think so, mono. "Whose" is the proper replacement for who's when discussing ownership.nb
- Who's got the knowledge? @nb does. That's who.chukkaphob
- Whose mistake was the "...something owned ..." one above? @monospaced'schukkaphob
- Mono is right, it denotes ownership. For ex: Where's my mind.
Where is the place thar has taken possession of your mind since you have clearly lost it.prospect - whoissureshot
- I am hot sauce is thisset
- Who is this hot, sauce?prospect
- I was agreeing nb. I wasn't arguing.monospaced
- I think it's one of those special cases like its/it's. "Who's" is for "who is" while "whos" is for posession and "whose" is the feminine of "whos".prospect
- @prospect nope, mono was not right - who's does NOT denote ownershipchukkaphob
- Who’s is a contraction of who is or who has. Whose is the possessive form of who or which.chukkaphob
- exactlymonospaced
- Yes.prospect
- Good. Finally both of you learned.chukkaphob
- I have always agreed with mono because he clearly said "That mistake is an easy one.". He never said whose was incorrect.prospect
- I was just adding stupid explanations where there didn't be any like the rest of you. Basically, this was a "I guess we'll have to disagree to agree" situation.prospect
- haha, me too, my bad, explained for no fucking good reason at all :/monospaced
- It was fun though.prospect
- Good times, dudes. Yeah.chukkaphob
- So, we're in agreement? Who's is not acceptable for possessive. It doesn't mean "belonging to who." Whose is correct.nb
- OH, yes, I see. Mono was saying it's an easy mistake. Never miiiind.nb
- I was high.monospaced
