What is something most people don’t understand?

Most people do not understand the proper way to use an apostrophe. Where the tiny airborne comma is placed on a page is confounding to many speakers of the English language, with perpetual confusion remaining intact from one generation to the next, blunders in writing ignored or unnoticed as young scribes commit to the pen in error, whether conjecture or inattention at fault too difficult to decree.

Something must be done to address the Apostrophe Catastrophe that inflicts our nation. We must not degenerate further on the global scale of language ability, with Australian English already judged as inferior to that of our counterparts. But how do we fix this debacle in discourse, so that more importunate issues can be solved in its place? No longer should we leave home in a state of fear, knowing our intellect will be questioned, an inquiry made into our own education as we are aggrieved by the vexing affront of an ill placed apostrophe.

Let us band together to teach our future leaders of the contrasting meaning of “fools” and “fool’s,” so that the interminable decline of language is stagnated, and once and for all we all permanently understand how to use an apostrophe.
