Re: [Tlhingan-hol] 'arDIch

Robyn Stewart ([email protected]) [KLI Member] [Hol po'wI']



Unlike many languages, English doesn't have a governing body that declares words or structures official or not, so there is no particular thing "alright" has to do to make it to the big time. It is generally considered a misspelling of "all right" so I suppose if it were to develop a distinct meaning in the manner of "all ready" versus "already" it would soon be considered standard English.

And maybe one day nISwI' bej will denote a particular kind of nISwI' not adequately covered by nISwI' beH, perhaps puS'eghlaH nIHwI' bej.

The issue is that "alright" is not considered a real word in standard English.
