WIBU to ask that people spell Hallowe'en properly?

[FreshBloodandGutsLeticia]

Please?

YABU.

I can't be arsed I'm afraid

very long day

My autocorrect calls it Halloween, so that is what I do :)

Don't be a Halloweiner.

I think you can call it halloween, hallowe'en, Samhain, All Hallows' Eve - they would all be correct.

YABU and a boring trumpy bottom:)

YABU. Next!

Kikibee - I admire your faith in autocorrect

Hallowevening.

31st. October

Pelvic Your NN is very effective ya know.

I aim to squeeze

Halloween, like it or lump it

YANBU - I'm with you. Even if fecking autocorrect isn't.

Ya'bu

I don't think YABU, but I am a self-confessed fusspot. I come close to apoplexy in Leeds station every time I hear an announcement about "eskewlators" rather than escalators. Pedants of the world, unite!

I'm with you OP.

Yes you would be unreasonable

And a bit silly too

I started a similar thread last December, asking people to take the trouble to write/type Christmas NOT Xmas.

It was much unappreciated. People just don't want to be told how to spell their beloved holidays .

Shouldn't it be Hallow'een, anyway? I mean, you need the long e sound; if it was Hallowe'en, that would be hallow en, not hallow een.

I ignore it anyway, so don't know why I'm commenting!

On a site with members that can't be bothered to type 'son', 'daughter', 'husband' etc??

Xmas has been written like that since the mid 1500's, by the way.

Madasfish. I'm in shock.
