Monday - Write a Little - Word Wise

Because I have an article due today I am seriously only going to post a little tiny post.

This is totally trivial stuff but I thought, word hound that I am, that it was interesting. I also think I may throw one of these into my Write A Little blogs from time to time because I think we should all be familiar with our own language. Here is a word we use all the time that is not an actual word.

IRREGARDLESS: It is a double negative. Regardless is the proper word to use.

I say "irregardless" all the time. Now I have to stop.

And Kudos to who can tell me the difference between "uninterested" and "disinterested."
