"your" ?

FYI: Punctuation marks go inside quotation marks.

Therefore, your correction should read: "your?"

On the other hand, if a question ends with a quoted statement that is
not a question, the question mark will go outside the closing
quotation mark.

It puts a smile on my face that half of the spelling, grammar,
or punctuation flames I see have errors of the same.




Bwahahahahahahahaha!
