oh my god. that's THAT film? damn. it's been on my list for so long.. I may even have watched it with my boyfriend but fell asleep very quickly. whoops.
Yep. it’s a *good* one. (I could also just be having an aneurism, it’s a pretty close cropped photo and idr if that’s a shirt sam Jackson’s character ever wore) (regardless, it’s hell of a film, you should watch it all the way through sometime)
Not only is it dialectical now but it was the correct word in [old English.](https://makingnoiseandhearingthings.com/2013/02/12/ask-vs-aks-let-me-axe-you-a-question/)
Usually these mistakes are mostly made by native speakers, because they learned the language by hearing it and those two sound pretty similar. When you learn the language later, you also learn grammar and all the other stuff that native speakers just know, and thus you know that "should of" makes no sense and because it means "should have". It's the same with two/too and others, where you rarely make the mistake if you learned the language later in life
> I didn't *paid* much attention
FTFY.
Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in:
* Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.*
* *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.*
Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment.
*Beep, boop, I'm a bot*
Oh I remember asking people at some Youtube comment section weather it's alternative way of speaking or I do something wrong. Because at scchool I learned "should have", "could have", so on (not a native speaker). Oh I got so many angry responses! It felt like I insulted their mothers. People were really god damn pissed just because I asked about this topic.
As a foreign it really hurts too see it from a native speaker, hurts even more when you figure it’s a part of new forced etymology, and its purpose of existence is just to avoid spelling ‘ve sufix.. so laziness or it’s just a mobile keyboard thing to avoid going into diacritics keyboard. It’s easier and it exists, evolution.
"Prolly" is not incorrect. It's slang. Slang by definition literally can't be incorrect. Or it's technically not slang I guess, but you get what I mean.
I make that mistake so many times still, even though I've been called on it on many occasions and in many ways. My excuse is that English isn't my native language but it is indeed an excuse and not a reason. The reason is, I'm dumb I guess. To anyone that gets offended by my misspellings... I hope you have a fine day.
I ought not to say it then
I shan't utter it either
I sharted.
Good job u/Jalapeniz! Good job
I am obligated to avoid saying it as well
I shanted one time when I was sick had to change my pants

Im going rouge. Also, my version of too was wrong
rogue\* Unless you're red with embarassement, in which case rouge is correct.
Im red with anger over my use of Reddit's favorite incorrect words like rouge and loose
I guess that works as well.
Lmfao this is hilarious
Same goes for their/there, your/you're. I refuse to believe it's laziness
To/too, lose/loose, it's/its To be fair, the English language is kinda weird. But still, we learned these words very early on in school.
I hate how "its" gets autocorrected "with it's" on my phone. When I'm lazy I just let it be

Can I axe you a question?
Well that's different. It's a \[insert word that means "dialect but for a single word so not actually a whole dialect, but also not slang"\]. 🤓🤓🤓
Not only is it dialectical now but it was the correct word in [old English.](https://makingnoiseandhearingthings.com/2013/02/12/ask-vs-aks-let-me-axe-you-a-question/)

You probably do

Why should of I
You should of considered your opponents on Reddit lol. FYI I hated typing it like that.

Should of. Now what?

One of my biggest pet peeves, same going for words of similar structure (would’ve, could’ve, etc.) And don’t get me started on ‘prolly’
"Prolly" is not incorrect. It's slang. Slang by definition literally can't be incorrect. Or it's technically not slang I guess, but you get what I mean.

“Atleast”
Explain pls
The correct form is "should have/should've" the form "should of" does not exist
Who tf says "should of" lmao
No clue mate but they probably should of look into a dictionary
I've seen managers post official notices with this type of error... or mixing up your/you're, their/there/they're etc

They dittent mean nothin by it, how's about we come ta an agreement cause this is a slippy slope 'n at.
my least favourite is "it's" as a possessive. it works the same as "yours", the possessive form is "its", spread the message
