Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt
Americans like being the best at things. We’re the best
at baseball, jazz, freedom, national parks—pretty much any-
thing Ken Burns has already covered.
Yes, living in the Land of Opportunity
is glorious. Today, I’d like to award
us (and, by us, I mean U.S.) a super-sized gold medal for
smashing words together more efficiently than anyone
else in the world.
Because Americans value efficiency, we combine mul-
tiple words into one super word. One way we do this is
through contractions. Don’t worry—I’m not talking about
the kind of contractions that lead to babies. I’m talking
about combining two words to make one short word. These
words include don’t (do not), we’ve (we have) and can’t (can
not). Yes, contractions increase our efficiency so we have
more time to manage our burgeoning stock portfolios while
refilling our Big Gulps (for free). But some contractions can
be tricky.
Have you ever been tripped up by should’ve? Should’ve is
a contraction for “should have.” For instance, “I should’ve
worn sunscreen when we were at the zoo.” This is a tru-
ism for me even on cloudy days. As a redhead, I cause
secondhand sunburns to people around me because the
sun reflects off my skin onto others’ skin. I can even get a
sunburn from a full moon. I should’ve worn sunscreen. You
get the point.
What about “should of”? As Americans, sometimes we
talk so quickly we say things like “shoulda,” which is an
even shorter way of saying “should’ve.” Many people mis-
takenly think this phrase is “should of.” “Should of” is incor-
rect and should never be spoken, typed or otherwise com-
municated. The same rule applies for “must’ve” (not must
of), “could’ve” (not could of), and “would’ve” (not would of).
If someone you care about uses “should of,” wait until
you have some one-on-one time with them, calmly sit them
down, and then gently correct them. Please don’t correct
them in public; that’s the quickest way to lose friends and
end up with a house full of cats (I believe the politically
correct term is “fur babies”).
In general, contractions like “should’ve” are still regarded
as informal speech, so, if you’re writing your doctoral dis-
sertation or cover letter to be hired as a lawyer, avoid
these shortcut words. However, in everyday conversations,
feel free to contract away. After all, the First Amendment
grants us free speech — and — since it’s the first one, that
probably means that it’s the best.
