Please state in which country your phrase tends to be used, what the phrase is, and what it should be.

Example:

In America, recently came across “back-petal”, instead of back-pedal. Also, still hearing “for all intensive purposes” instead of “for all intents and purposes”.

    Alright and all right have different meanings to me.

    Alright is either a exclamation (“Alright!”) or a synonym for “okay”. (“Everything is going to be alright”)

    All right is means all correct. (“The answers were all right”.)
