I did a sequence break and found Mineru before getting The Fifth Sage quest. Is it possible for me to still 100% complete the game or are some of those quests now forever incomplete and not finishable? Also will I get the quests if I talk to the right people?
It is a word. A nonstandard word (https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/irregardless). But I deserve the scolding, for learning these kind of expressions and nonstandard words from native speakers. I’ll refrain from using it in the future. Cheers.
Actually, it was interesting to read that merriam link, I think they were a bit light on the topic.
I agree, its been around for ever, so its a “word” and we know what someone means when saying it. But it doesn’t make it correct.
IR as in ir-respective it a negation, and it is the same as regard-less, in this case LESS is the negation. So technically ir-regard-less is a double negative, so it equals ‘regards’. Totally technically incorrect and language wise completely illogical ( IL- !! ).
I’ll give you a hint though, Merriam-Webster is an American company, and choses American-isms over the vastly more used British English. Perhaps have a look at the Oxford dictionary for a more lexicographic accurate resource.
Oh! Ok, got it: American dictionaries bad, British dictionaries good. Cheers mate!
