Look See

Look, Jane, look! See spot! See spot run! Words from a primer.

We have a phrase adults use: Pop your head around the corner and take a look-see.

Now dang-nab daughter comes up with:
take a looksy at this: http://www.farbeyondthestars.com/27-reasons-why-you-should-never-have-a-job/
Which makes me wonder just how it should it be spelled. Of course it's not proper grammar, and if it's not proper grammar, how can you tell if it isn't spelled correctly? Nationally Enquiring minds want to know: look-see, looksy or looksie?

  1. ARRRRGGGHHH!! I've been wondering the same thing - I found your blog LOOKING FOR THE ANSWER!!! You're right, it's not proper English, so who cares - uh, I do, and apparently, so do you!
