I just realized alot is not a word, lol...i feel stupid...i mean, more stupid after figuring that one out. I wanted a synonym for "alot" and went to 3 differant online dictionary's make sure that it was not really in there. [/useless thread]

I think they say a lot is ok to use.. but not alot.. But in grammar they try to get you to use other things instead of a lot.. like many, a bunch, several, etc...

Yeah, one of my english teachers in middle school taught us that. She wrote an "A" on one side of the board, and "Lot" at the other side, and left it on there for weeks. She got the point across. Lol
