Thank's and Thanks

The first one is incorrect.

Hmm, bit of a red rag to a Dave

You can use "Thank's" as short for "Thank is". Very rarely seen or heard, but it is in Shakespeare. For example, to say that gratitude is the only way that a poor person can repay ...

- Evermore thank's the exchequer of the poor

dave_anon- Evermore thank's the exchequer of the poor

Interesting example. It seems that many editions have "corrected" this to "thanks", thereby presumably completely destroying the meaning. I guess it is hard for readers to see "thank's" as anything but an error.

generally we use Thanks not Thank's...

"generally" is not really strong enough.
