Comsie Posted November 9, 2008 Posted November 9, 2008 Another very simple question this week. Is 'nowadays' a word? If you say, "Nowadays, gay teens are a lot more accepted than when I grew up." Is that a literary mistake? If you spell it out as 'now a days', it makes no sense at all. Is it a slang? Does it exist at all? Let us know!
