“Gonna” is not in the dictionary. It’s a slang! I just checked Ofxord dictionary.
It is in my dictionary. 🙂
Gonna is a contraction of ‘going to’, just like don’t is a contraction of ‘do not’.
I really don’t think you can legally call something a contraction without the ‘, lol…. but yeah, I agree, i’m gonna and fixin’ to go to bed, lol…
I do not agree with you Jan. “Gonna” is just a quick and lazy way of saying “Going to”, although “don’t” is actually a contraction of “do not”, because it uses the apostrophe, like in “have not” to “haven’t” and “was not” to “wasn’t”. It’s just like saying “ya” rather than “you” and the list goes on and on. All that actually depends on the area you come from. Every place in the world has it’s own dialect which is different to other places. You will not find many people saying “Fizzog”, or “Gob”, as these are the words in the dialect of my county, Fizzog means face and Gob means mouth. [:P] Therefore, “Gonna” is not in the official dictionary.
When are you guys gonna shut up about this? 7 posts about the word “gonna” – who actually gives a damn? I mean you guys are kinda going overboard on this don’t ya think? [:P]
Uh, the filter isn’t really meant for this type of thing.
Maybe we need a “Why does using slang make me look like a moron” topic?

I just don’t want it to get to the point where words are getting screwed up because of the filtered words.
Well, I have since added this to my forum, altho I didn’t have much use for most of the ones you guys talked about, I took one girls’ posts laone and formed most of my list, which, and I tell you again you guys are lucky compared to what is in here, I am about the worst of your worries, lol, I had to add
dat – that
der – there
dem – them
sum1 – someone
dez – these
dis – thisI swear I had to pull a guy off the street in baggies to translat the rest, lol….
I knew this would screw something up….
Can you arrange it so I can have the username L-y-k-o-s ( without the “-‘s” of course ) please. Your filter seems to have a problem with the “L-y-k” part of it.
