"Irregardless" is a double negative, and therefore considered improper English. According to the dictionary, Webster's New World, it is considered "nonstandard" or "humerous" usage, for obvious reasons. The "ir" part means "not"; the "regardless" part means "in spite of". Use this type of written or verbal language in a business atmosphere and you just show your ignorance. People have been known to lose job/advancement opportunities because of "improper" English. I just thought you might like to know.
How about people who say Im going by my moms today..Well, are you just driving by or are you going TO your moms house?????????
Is it a nice word or bad? I've heard a lot of words on this thread, but not that one! Can you tell me what it means? Two words in one: but that My relative uses the phase: "It's as simple as that!" and it drives me up a wall!
Not that it's a word, rather an entire alphabet. Take braille off of bathroom entrances. Isn't that what the dog's for?
"due to the fact" The speaker here has no facts in mind; just likes to hear the phrase roll of his/her tongue as though playing a top-40 DJ.
