"Toan"??

[sacahill42]

"Toan" has two syllables. It is the portmanteau love child of "tone" and "koan".

This thread is one of many examples of a toan on TB. Enjoy your time under the bodhi tree grasshopper!

If all of this is making you moan and groan, just remember that language is all about communication and as long as people understand you you can make your oan. That is, unless your mind is bloan.

This is the first I’ve encountered this. But my students will affirm that I have no rizz so I suppose we ought not be surprised.

I remember in the late 90s when the trendy thing to do in Internet chatrooms was to write "kewl" instead of "cool." It never made sense to me because it's the same number of letters, so it's not shorthand or an abbreviation like "brb" when you need to type a message out quickly.

You know, as much as I grumbled about it, I'm glad my mom made me take a touch typing class when I was in high school. I type faster than I write and by default I type using proper spelling, grammar, and punctuation.

If somebody wants to knowingly misspell "tone" as "toan" for fun, it doesn't bother me.

It's the ubiquitous grocer's apostrophes (and opposites), their/there/they're confusions, spellcheck and speech-to-text errors that get posted because people can't be bothered to reread what they just wrote before posting... writing 65' when they mean '65... 34' when they mean 34"... ellipses instead of commas to make it look like they're not chaining comma splices together when they absolutely are... that all bothers me.

"Toan" is just cute, nonharmful. People will get tired of doing it and move on to something else that annoys you instead.

your right about grocer's apostrophes. it makes you're writing look bad
