Usage:
"...he should have copyrighted his thread..."

actually technically both are wrong (cause niether word exists), because it should be said something along the lines of...

The post should've been copyright.

because there are only 2 varations on the word;
Copyright and Copyrights, noun and adjective. Unfortunately no passive tense. I just say written over righted because it sounds better when reading it through; Copyrighted sounds odd.

The word you've entered isn't in the dictionary. Click on a spelling suggestion below or try again using the search box to the right.

Suggestions for copywritten:
1. copywriter
2. copyrighted
3. copywriters
4. copyrighting
5. cooperating
6. copyreading
7. copyedited
8. copartner
9. copyrights
10. Cupertino

I'd note entries 2,4, and 9 and respectfully disagree

Well as CattleRustler says, copyrighted.
Word: Copyright -> copy right

"right" is either a noun, an adjective or a verb (transitive and also intransitive but has a different meaning then), past participle: "righted"
Therefore "copyrighted". Not that difficult.

No Copyright is a singular word, not 2 words.
As I said, I checked AskOxford; you have a problem with the english language that CattleRustlers words are *NOT* considered part of the English language by them, then go and take it up with them.

As I said, both variations are technically wrong... end of story.

American Heritage, Wordnet and Webster say it's a verb.
Adverbial complement is an interesting theory, but then again it's just 1 word.

Quote: " a moonshine has something to do with making your own beer I think...not sure though"


Well, back when the United States started banning alchohol in many states, illegal breweries would open up in secret places, usually in the forests under the light of the moon. There they would produce liquor, and sell it secretly and illegally. This type of liquor was called Moonshine because they would usually make it in secret at night using only the moon as light.

Moonshine is the term given to homemade spirits; around where i grew up we used to call it Rocket Fuel.
Basically it's strong stuff (usually >80% proof); and usually most will leave you believeing your standing up when really you collapsed 20minutes ago.

your welcome to check Oxford if you want, and your also welcome to question them to why they don't list the words other dictionaries claim to exist.

As far as I'm conserned, they are the authority on the English Language; not Websters. After all they are *actually* English, not American, and the language is called English, not American or American Engilsh.

If they say a word doesn't exist, it doesn't officially exist.
So as I said: End Of Story!

OK, first off:

Just because Oxford says a word doesn't exist, doesn't mean it DOESN'T EXIST! There are words that Webster doesn't know too. If you want one: Shuriken. Those are ninja stars
I can't check the Oxford dictionary because I don't have a subscription.
Nothing against either of you though

Shuriken is most likely a Japanese word --- HENCE not in the English dictionary.

I agree with Raven that if it's not in the English dictionary, it's not a real English word. Anything else is just American slang.

entrepreneur is a French word but you can find it in almost every English dictionary.
The point is, just because it is not in the FREE online version of the Oxford dictionary, doesn't mean the word doesn't exist.

From the Website:
About this dictionary
The Compact Oxford English Dictionary of Current English contains 145,000 words, phrases, and definitions.

The printed version "Concise Oxford English Dictionary" contains
"more than 240,000 words, phrases, and meanings"
