Weather vs Whether

It’s sexy to know the difference.

So, a lot of people mess up weather vs whether. I actually had one writer who just spelled the word consistently wrong as a totally made up word wether.

Anyway these bad boys are homophones which means they sound the same aloud, but they have different meanings and different spellings.

WEATHER – This is a noun or a verb. It can be what it’s like outside (hot, rainy, stormy, sunny_ or it can mean that you’re a bad ass and you’ve withstood some crap.

You have weathered the zombie apocalypse with nary a scratch.

Whoo, the weather today is amazing. It’s legit snowing glitter fairies.

WHETHER is no noun. It is no verb. This bad boy is a conjunction and it basically is the same thing as saying if. It connects choices in a sentences.

Yo, I plan to have a Bigfoot love affair whether or not he’s real.

Whether you think it is or not, I am so in love with how cool your rainbow farts are.

And there you go.

WETHER never works.

You can check out my blog here.

Thanks for listening to Write Better Now.

The music you hear is made available through the creative commons and it’s a bit of a shortened track from the fantastic Mr.ruiz and the track is Arctic Air and the album is Winter Haze Summer Daze.
