Hmmmm, I'm proved wrong again!
[quote]"Irregardless" is a word and we're duty-bound to enter
it.
My name is Kory Stamper and I am a lexicographer for
Merriam-Webster. That means I am a writer and editor of
dictionaries.
One word that gets a lot of vitriol is the word "irregardless."
There is a dictionary entry for "irregardless." "Irregardless"
is a word. This inspires specific vehement hatred in people.
"Irregardless" is a word and we're duty-bound to enter it.
"Irregardless" is a word. It is related to "regardless." It is
actually a blend of two words. It's a blend of "irrespective"
and "regardless." People hate it because they say that it has no
use � why not just use "regardless"?
But actually in the dialect that "irregardless" comes from, it
has a specific use that doesn't translate well in print. It's
basically an emphatic use of "regardless." So if you�re a native
speaker of certain dialects that use "irregardless" you use
"irregardless" to shut down further conversation on a topic. I
might say, �Dad, let me borrow the car. I'm a really good
driver.� And he'll say, �Regardless, I'm not comfortable.� I'll
say, �Oh but come on. I'll get it detailed, and I'll put gas in
it.� He�ll say, �Irregardless, no.�
The point of the "irregardless" is to shut down conversation. So
"irregardless" is a word. It has a specific use, in particular
dialects. That said, it�s not part of standard English and so �
especially if you�re writing or if you�re speaking in formal
places � you want to use "regardless" instead. Because if you
use "irregardless," people will think you�re uneducated.[/quote]
Apologizes Maddog :oops:
