This one is driving me crazy! I think this must be the word that's most frequently misspelled, especially in bulletin boards and review websites. AAAAGGHHH!!!

think of it as "the state of having definition"
definition makes more phonetic sense than defination, and definitely is a related word

Thank you. I felt like it was the world against me. It's nice finding someone with the same peeve. There are many spell checking programs that allow the incorrect spelling!

it's pronounced with a short 'i' sound, just how it's spelled .. i have no idea where people get the 'a' from. definitely a mystery

I am much, much too old to not know how to spell this word, but in my defense I had an instinct that I was wrong, so I googled (new and very useful verb) DEFINATELY and found your very helpful and charming site. I am infinITEly grateful!

so you pronoune it defi nate ly? nit nit nit. Definitely. This angers me a bit when people spell it like this, but it doesn't even compare to when someone switches your and you're. That one really pisses me off.

i suggest you all read the evolution of language by guy deutscher. i think you'll find after reading this book your ideas on grammar and spelling may be interestingly questioned.

Definately is definitely not a word.
I also often see "deinfately", which is nearly incomprehensible.
