OK, Here’s the Deal

OK—not okay, says AP. The APA crew does not have a firm ruling on this word, and a quick peek at the APA Style blog reveals that bloggers use both okay and OK. I’m guessing, then, that if you are writing an APA-Style paper, you’d be fine with either version just be consistent with your use by picking one spelling and sticking with it throughout your masterpiece.

As a fan of AP-Style writing, I’m choosing OK (and OK’d, OK’ing, and OKs).

OK?
