@cracking Whose. I'm just as guilty as anyone for confusing this with who's. They sound exactly the same.
Whose is possessive. Example. "Whose car is in the driveway?" You want to know, who owns the car.
Who's is a contraction of "who is" or "who has"
"whose/who's" (Ignore the w, it's silent)

I recommend you use the link below as reference for the dictionary phonetic spellings. It sounds like you are trying to read standard spellings as they are written. English spellings simply don't represent how a word is said, phonetics spellings do.

@cracking No you didn't speak badly. I'm saying that standard English spellings are very confusing. They make accurate pronunciation harder. If you can interpret phonetic spellings, you can say a word accurately. The link gives you a reference for the sound phonetic characters represent. It's a powerful tool for learning to speak.
