Didn't think I'd cause such a male strum by my damp squib comment.

Before I make any more Fowpas can someone please enlighten me regarding the current status of the "could of" versus "could have" situation. The incorrect use of "could of" has always irritated me but I will abide by the CCMB ruling if I am out of step here.

Anyone who tells you that "could of" is acceptable is talking out if their dairy air.

I saw the pelanties one. I think John Hartson was the main speaker.

I know someone who now replaces every ‘have’ with ‘of’ and is convinced it is proper English. An example would be - ‘Of you ever been abroad’ or ‘What do you usually of for breakfast’. This came about because of the widespread use of ‘could of’ instead of ‘could have’ and the fact that no one ever corrects it any more. It is, basically, gibberish.

There's a certain high profile user on the other board who continually uses "could of". I'm not sure if his grasp of English is really that poor or whether he's taking the p**s !

There’s quite an amusing sub Reddit (for those that Reddit) dedicated to getting phrases wrong. It’s called boneAppleTea - in homage to the girl that thought that’s what ‘bon appetite’ was!
