minus-squarePrison MikelinkfedilinkEnglish3•edit-22 months agoAt first I thought it had to do with cash registers. People using “till” in place of “‘til” or “until” drives me crazy. (Also, using “a” like in “two times a year” creeps me out too. Sure, I say “a year” but in writing it looks sloppy.)
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish2•2 months ago“till” and “til” are both absolutely fine to use as an abbreviation for “until” In fact the double-L spelling has been around longer
minus-squarePrison MikelinkfedilinkEnglish2•2 months agoBecause right now in 2024 we have the word “until” (one L) so using the word till as an abbreviation looks dumb as shit.

minus-squareGrubberfly 🔮linkfedilinkEnglish1•2 months agoBecause they only mentioned what creeps them out, offering no option (hence my comment) instead of the «correct» one. plus my mind blanked, heh
