  • Clitics are words that show meaning, but are attached to other words. In English this usually manifests as forms of words contracted by an apostrophe. These words carry functional meaning, but they typically can’t be stressed in a sentence-- for example the be-verb “is” in “it’s” can be used to indicate the progressive tense in “it’s raining”, but can’t be the answer to the question “Is it here?” “Yes, it’s” (native speakers would say “Yes, it is”).

    Just in case anyone else got curious about the grammar of the title here.

    OP I like the bling and the view 👍
