Tomarrow is not a word, at least not in the English language. It is completely wrong and should not be used.

Well that's kind of prescriptivist, isn't it? Countless things that were considered ridiculous and unfathomable only decades ago are completely fine now. The idea of a "correct" spelling is pretty new in general.

First I want to say I am not poking fun of anyone on this board that may have accidentally or purposely used it. There was a manager at my bank that was responsible for sending reports or training schedules via email to the company. She ALWAYS spelled it tomarrow because that is how she pronounces it. It drove me nuts! When I saw it spelled that way today it just reminded me of that manager & made me giggle.

Once upon a time, I spelled it 'tomarrow'... because I'm just silly like that
And then one of my friends yelled at me every time I did it. Now when I see someone spell it with an 'a' I just keep thinking '[friend] is gonna yell at youuu!'

It's definitely spelt tomorrow, which is also how I pronounce it...

I thought it was cute. It made me laugh and think of that manager from work which led to this poll
