Spelling can be a challenge for students learning the English language, particularly when it comes to certain words. This can be attributed to differences in spelling compared to similar words in other languages, or inconsistencies in pronunciation. One of the more common spelling mistakes is with the word “no one/noone”. In this guide, we will offer a detailed explanation of how to spell this word correctly.

The correct spelling of “no one”

“No one” is an indefinite pronoun replacing the word “nobody”. However, it is treated as a singular noun, which is why it’s always followed by a singular verb form. The word “no one” is believed to have originated in Middle English as a combination of the words “no” and “one.” The use of “no one” to replace the word “nobody” has been in common use since the 19th century.

Correct spelling

no one

Incorrect spelling

noone

The correct spelling of “no one” is without as two separate words. The most common misspelling is “noone”. This is likely due in part to the common usage of the word as a single unit of meaning, which could lead people to believe that it is spelled as a single word. The existence of other words like “anyone” and “somaeone”, which are spelled as single words, could also be contributing to the confusion.

Examples

  • No one showed up to the party last night.
  • I saw the car accident happen and no one got hurt.
  • It’s strange that no one has ever been to this part of the forest before.

FAQs

The correct spelling is “no one,” as two separate words without a hyphen. “Noone” is a misspelling of “no one”.

”No one’s” is a contraction of “no one is” or “no one has”. “No ones” by itself is not correct grammar, but it could be used as part of a larger sentence.

The correct phrase is “no one cares”. This is because “no one” is a singular noun, and the verb “cares” should agree with it in number. In contrast, “no ones care” is not grammatically correct, as it combines a singular noun (“one”) with a plural verb (“care”).
