YOK-dfa Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Should of saved your pennies then!!!! Out of curiosity, what's the deal with replacing 'have' with 'of' lately? (noticed that a lot of people on the internet seem to be doing that). Is that slang/dialect or something else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roland p Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 How can it be homebrew if it's made by Activision? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maximebeauvais Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 those game were offered to the INTV community first (which I'm part of) and then to the public but I think they were all sold before reaching the public . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubledown Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 If I'm not mistaken these were games programmed by Activision back in the day, but never released. Then released as homebrews some few years back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(noticed that a lot of people on the internet seem to be doing that). Is that slang/dialect or something else? It's just sloppy written English being impacted by the tendency for people to use "should've" in spoken English and then misspell the written form based on how the contraction sounds, since the "ve" part - s̸ho̵od′əv - is, in one form, the same pronunciation as the word "of": əv, before consonants also ə; ′əv, ′äv. From Common Errors in English Usage (2nd Edition) by Paul Brians: WRONG: COULD OF, SHOULD OF, WOULD OF RIGHT: COULD HAVE, SHOULD HAVE, WOULD HAVE This is one of those errors typically made by a person more familiar with the spoken than the written form of English. A sentence like "I would have gone if anyone had given me free tickets" is normally spoken in a slurred way so that the two words "would have" are not distinctly separated, but blended together into what is properly rendered "would've." Seeing that "V" tips you off right away that "would've" is a contraction of "would have." But many people hear "would of" and that's how they write it. Wrong. Note that "must of" is similarly an error for "must have." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
