» Pat Posted January 24, 2009 Report Posted January 24, 2009 There is no such phrase as should of. It's fucking should have. Modal auxiliaries never have an ' of ' after them ( except for special cases such as ' He ate as much as he could of his mom's cake' ). They're always followed by a verb. And as far as I know, ' of ' isn't a verb ( I of, you of, he / she / it ofs, we of, they of? No. ). So please, if you tend to say or write sentences like this, always proofread your posts & make sure you do not oppress the english language any longer. Thank you.
Terroryst Posted January 24, 2009 Report Posted January 24, 2009 That's why I use should've! 'Cept I can't use it in essays. :[
Millenia Posted January 24, 2009 Report Posted January 24, 2009 I am probably guilty of typing this and butchering my own language. Noh8pls.
Lucius Posted January 24, 2009 Report Posted January 24, 2009 I've never seen "Should of" used. Only "Should've" or "Should Have". However, Should've isn't even a word.
Zeitgeist Posted January 24, 2009 Report Posted January 24, 2009 I should of known I can't say "I should of."
