Would of / Could of
There is no such English as 'would of' or 'could of' - it's 'would have' and 'could have'. You can also write them as would've or could've.

By virtue of the authority vested in me by being a long time member of this board I declare 'woulda, shoulda, coulda' to be acceptable slang.

First some southern definitions;

Gramma - your mom and dads moms; or the whole system and structure of a language or of languages in general, usually taken as consisting of syntax and morphology (including inflections) and sometimes also phonology and semantics.

Spellin - the process or activity of writing or naming the letters of a word.

This thread definitely needs to be 'stickied'.

Way too much good information to let it drift off the first page into oblivion.

Haha, when I saw this as the heading I was going to reply with a correction. I'm glad it was unnecessary.
