Please use "a lot", since those words are actually in the dictionary.

</grammar rant>

[TChris]

That is all.

[Question Liberal Authority]

I see people say that alot.

[The_Victor]

Hmmmmmmmm,.....

no

[TNCMAXQ]

“Alright” is not a word either but so many people, including those who should know better, use it.

There there is “can’t help but” and so many others. So I’d better not go on. Heh heh.

[Jewbacca]

Doesn’t the comma goes inside the quotation mark?

[avacado]

Pedant freak! ;-)

[vox_freedom]

Irregardless, I’ll use it. :-)

[dangus]

Zot alot?

[Zeddicus]

Yeah, this really bothers me. It bothers me alot.

[HairOfTheDog]

If alot of people use it, doesn't that make it a word?

[MrB]

Trying to determine if this is a worse pet peeve than the self-appointed “capitalization nazi” that pops up on “alot” of threads.

[cripplecreek]

K thanx alot.

[GOPJ]

Alot of yawning on this one... ( doncha just love the 3 dots...? ) (That said - you’re right.)

[sam_paine]

People that say alot when they write would loose my vote because they’re so lose with their grammer.

[ZirconEncrustedTweezers]

And most of us could care less. :b

[gunnyg]

[cowtowney]

Alot is not a word

Your right.

[Rammer]

Minus well go ahead and correct alot of other errors too.

Just don’t put your grammer skills on a pedal stool. Alot of people make mistakes.

[cripplecreek]

I use alright alot.
