"Irregardless" is a bastarization of "regardless" that has entered the language by heavy if ignorant usage.I can defend "I could care less" as it consciously amplifies the correct form through sarcasm. In general, though, too easy acceptance of these errors debases the language. It's like saying "if I can get the meaning across it doesn't matter" until fewer and fewer even know what the correct form is. |
