Won't

[ThoraGruntwhistle]

The word 'won't' (as in will not) - it definitely has an apostrophe between the n and the t, doesn't it?
9yo DC has been told by teacher today that it doesn't have one. I was absolutely sure it did, but I'm now questioning whether I've been writing it incorrectly all my life.

Without the apostrophe it's wont which is a different word. He was wont to always smoke his pipe after dinner

It means

It was his habit to smoke his pipe after dinner

I'm with you. It definitely has an apostrophe.

Wont without an apostrophe has a different meaning.

That's what I thought. The class were learning about apostrophes and contractions of words though, like isn't and wouldn't, but were told that 'won't' doesn't have one.

Of course it has an apostrophe! I suppose she thinks ain't doesn't have one either?
