It's commonly said, but how do you actually type "okay"?

I've noticed many variations of the word, but I prefer to use "okay" and "k" since I really really hate "ok" for some reason. D< Everything else is fine. XD;

"OK" in caps lock! I always say OK. I thought you were supposed to type it as capital letters because it's shortened of "okay"? I hate "ok" and "okay", I find "k" funny, but never type it. OK! OK has lost all meaning to me now haha XD Typed it too many times.

Abbreviated fanciful spelling of "all correct" (oll korrect), as part of a fad for similar comical abbreviations (of which no others have survived) in the United States in the late 1830s.
Really we should be saying AC. :0
Makes me wonder what the English 'general acknowledgement' was before OK came about.


I use okay in forums and writing, but simply ok/k in IM.

Most times it's just "Okay", or "OK".

Sometimes, I may do something like "Yep", "Gotcha", "Alright" or "On it", depending on the situation.

I just read everyone's posts, and you know that feeling you get when you read the same word over and over again, and it doesn't seem to sound or spell right anymore? That's with me now, with the word okay. XD

I'll type okay. Or k. Or kay. I hate ok, it looks lame.

i wanna be the wind that fills your sails,
& be the hand that lifts your veil.
& be the moon that moves your tide,
the sun coming up in your eyes.
be the wheels that never rust,
& be the spark that lights you up.
all that you've been dreaming of and more,
so much more, i wanna be your everything.. <3

paired with alternative <3
