Okay so this post is different because I'm addressing an error in speaking. So often I hear people say "I should of gone too." This is not proper English, no matter how convinced you are that it is right, it's not. The proper way to say it is should've.
Why?
Because the word is a contraction, as I've written about before. It joins together the words should and have. So don't say should and of. And it's definitely not shoulda (sometimes I say this I'll admit.) The same goes for would've and could've. They are all contractions with the word have.
