everywheres: see anyways
go: should not be used to report speech (“He goes, ‘I quit.’ ”)
hopefully: most often heard as a substitute for “I hope;” as such it is not a
word. “Hopefully I’ll get an A on the test” is an example of nonstandard
English. What the writer means is “I hope I’ll get an A on the test.” Hope-
fully is a word, however, when used as an adverb to mean full of hope. For
example: They waited hopefully for the firefighters.
irregardless: this blend of irrespective and regardless has been in use for
about a century, but is still not considered a word in standard written
English
majorly/minorly: major and minor are adjectives; these substandard forms
are attempts to use the words as adverbs. Other words, such as “somewhat,”
should be used instead.
nother: incorrect form of another
nowheres: see anyways
