Does it drive anyone else nuts when people use "defiantly" instead of "definitely" ? It's gotta be the most misused word after your , you're, their , there, they're ... the grammar Nazi in me cringes
I was speaking to my friend Merriam, when I asked is irregardless a word? I was told Irregardless was popularized in dialectal American speech in the early 20th century. Its increasingly widespread spoken use 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.
However she did say I should use regardless instead.

People use "regardless" and "irregardless" in the exact same function though no? Just in general speech I've heard anyways .. like anyone who I've ever heard say it could use regardless and mean the exact same thing . It's redundant .. humans are weird
Haha, awesome discussion guys! But regarding the initial question, we should have some more info about the upcoming update soon! But you'll hear it from our content creators first. The info should come somewhere during this month still. (:
@Kaz I'm so excited! I just can't hide it! I'm about to lose control and I think I like it!!
@Starr621 http://www.magickeys.com/books/riddles/words.html Enjoy these as well: HOMONYMS are words that sound alike but have different meanings. Homophones are a type of homonym that also sound alike and have different meanings, but have different spellings.
HOMOGRAPHS are words that are spelled the same but have different meanings. Heteronyms are a type of homograph that are also spelled the same and have different meanings, but sound different.
WORDS THAT BOTH SOUND THE SAME AND ARE SPELLED THE SAME are both homonyms (same sound) and homographs (same spelling). Example: lie (untruth) and lie (prone); fair (county fair), fair (reasonable).

I have friends that like to use "50 cent words" to make themselves feel special. I'm often looking them up under the table on my phone
Edit to add: I've been having a joyous time playing with Latin lately. My extended family has a couple people taking Latin as a class. We are having fun throwing statements and trying to decipher without using google. Haha

As long as the update information released doesn't contain the words 'council update', or at least if it does but is prefixed by the word 'no' I'll be happy...
@Samstown Go back and check the forums months ago. This game is dead. After @Shteevie promised there would be some AMAZING things coming, he promised. NOTHING, not a word. @Kaz has gone quiet, no news no nothing, no devs words absolutely nothing. I've stopped spending money months ago and playing Animation Throwdown instead, I spend over $400 AUD with them so far happily. They constantly upgrade and develop the game, listen to players, its great. If they make a game error, they send you a sorry pack of great stuff to compensate you. Such a pity about this game, I loved iot for 2 years but the forum warned NG they would stop playing and spending but NG doesnt seem to care one bit. Try find anything that mentions anything of updates or what to come.. You wont find it ....

It's ironic you say that @Kaz has gone quiet and that there is no mention of an update to come on a thread which Kaz has just recently commented on saying that update information is on the way shortly...
Just another example of what was said months ago. Sorry to see you go @Drunken. NG not doing anything about players leaving nor caring. Be interesting to see their next business QBR. But on another note, Animation Throwdown has had around $400 AUD from me in the last 2 months @Kaz ... Money better spent. I haven't nor will spend any more money on a game that is going no where. Ive gone from around 1400 stars, down to 700 down to 430 and not far off stopping myself.

Also don't forget to compare
acyrologia vs malapropism
Depending on what site/book you get examples from, some are down right pee yourself funny.
