thank you no one

which is it?

[jno]

thank you - definitely

no one or no-one - either is okay, I think, but not noone.

[JuanKing]

thanks

[THECORBYLOON]

I write "no-one" but then again I write "to-morrow," "to-night" and "to-day" which many think is old-fashioned, to which I reply, "Tish-tosh and a hey-nonny-nonny!"

Generally use the hyphen between two vowels in a word.  No-one, where-ever, co-operative.  Never seen it used for today or tomorrow - hey ho!  BTW, is it into or in to?

[jno]

into is fine, but I don't personally think onto is a word, it should be on to... but analogy is a powerful force in language.

Hello TCL, do you still write Princes-street in the old-fashioned way?

[THECORBYLOON]

jno, "onto" is an Americanism. If you mean the street in Edinburgh, I've not had much need to write about Princes Street with or without a hyphen. It should be Princes' Street but I don't know if it's ever had the apostrophe. I'm surprised EssJay1 has never seen the words "to-day" or "to-morrow", maybe he or she should get out more and travel in one of those horseless carriages, traverse the King's Highways ........

Both The Oxford English Dictionary and Chambers Dictionary find 'onto' an acceptable word.
'Wherever' is not a hyphenated word, having nowadays a single central 'e'.
'To-morrow', 'to-night' etc long since lost their hyphens in standard British usage.
American usage has tended in recent years to get rid of hyphens, even in circumstances in which a hyphen is a valuable aid to comprehension. Personally, I believe that 'doorknob' and other such words do not require a hyphen, as there is no obvious hiatus between the elements of the word. On the other hand, it's plain silly to omit the hyphen from 'co-operation'.
An Americanism that never fails to make me laugh is their word for a colleague', namely, a 'coworker'. This is not someone who orks cattle, you understand! No, it's a 'co-worker'. I'm not sure, therefore, whether they have now adopted 'noone' as an acceptable version of 'no-one', but they will...oh, they will.

Thecorbyloon - you'll be telling me people can tell the time without using the sun next.
Do you know something about QE2 that the Brits don't?

[THECORBYLOON]

EssJay, being in The St Crispin's Home for the Bewildered as I am, I must admit that some things pass me by......

[Quizmonkey]

Of course into and onto are words - but they are not always interchangeable with 'in to' and 'on to'. If the in and on are particles from phrasal verbs, they must stay as 'on' and 'in' and not be joined to the 'to'. (basically!) eg. he soon caught on to the trick.

It is impossible to say thankyou to no-one. If no-one is there how can you thank them

[Quizmonster]

How about a self-made man, Polly, who might say: "I got where I am today purely on my own efforts, so... 'Thank you no-one!"
