In last week's episode of Awake, a character used a word that many people use that really isn't a word.
The coroner said, "tonight I do a whole nother workup."
"Nother" not a word!
"Another" is a word. The two words that make up "another" are "an" and "other," not "a" and "nother." So if you put "whole" between those words, "an" changes to "a," and "other" stays "other." A whole OTHER workup.
Okay, that's a lot of explanation just to make my point again that "nother" is not a word!
