New Word!

Sunday, June 7, 2009

This isn't really a new word, especially for ebonics users, but I think it deserves a post for the shear variety of ways to spell the **** word.


(my spelling) iight (adv or adj) : look up alright

Basically 'iight' is the short-hand of 'alright', which is short-hand of 'all right,' lazy aren't we? But through text messages and IM chats 'iight' has been spelled many ways, such as 'aight', 'ight', 'eyeght' (this one is just weird though). What I've found in common is that each ends in 'ght' so people understand the word.
