irregardless



Main Entry: ir·re·gard·less
Pronunciation: \ˌir-i-ˈgärd-ləs\
Function: adverb
Etymology: probably blend of irrespective and regardless
Date: circa 1912
nonstandard : regardless
usage Irregardless originated in dialectal American speech in the early 20th century. Its fairly widespread use in speech called it to the attention of usage commentators as early as 1927. The most frequently repeated remark about it is that “there is no such word.” There is such a word, however. It is still used primarily in speech, although it can be found from time to time in edited prose. Its reputation has not risen over the years, and it is still a long way from general acceptance. Use regardless instead.

Wait.... there's more....

In order to find it amusing one first needs to have a sense of humor.

We should raise funds so that guy (you know who I am talking about) can get an operation to remove the stick from his ***.

Screw all of you who feel like you have to come to a message board and correct someone's grammar. I can understand if one's horrible grammar and spelling mistakes make them hard to understand, but one word did not deter you from understanding what he was saying at all.

It is isn't it?

Irregardless of course.

Irregardless is a double negative. Fine if you are working a mathematical equation, a big bugaboo in English grammar. It is a redundancy, a contradiction. The suffix “less” makes regardless negative, adding the prefix “ir” is a blunder.

Regardless of this, carry on.

This thread makes me want to imbibe "a substance almost, but not quite, entirely like tea."
