Talk:dunno

I

I know dunno also often additionally replaces the I in instances where that word would normally appear prior to it (giving I do not know --> dunno, as in "Hasn't Michael been to school today at all?!" "Dunno.": it is here easy to deduct that the speaker intends the meaning of "I" to be included, as is the case with many speakers in many cases (in many languages even), as in "What's up, man?" "Sitting on the train.").

I have added a 'Usage notes' to that effect. Thanks for pointing it out! --Μετάknowledge^{discuss/deeds} 00:36, 22 August 2012 (UTC)

Is there a noun as well? --Anatoli 04:06, 22 June 2010 (UTC)

Not that I know of as a native speaker. If it existed, I would expect that (deprecated template usage) dunnos would exist as well (see google books:"dunnos"). --Μετάknowledge^{discuss/deeds} 00:36, 22 August 2012 (UTC)

Slash that, it exists. I added a noun section. Thanks! --Μετάknowledge^{discuss/deeds} 00:38, 22 August 2012 (UTC)

Is this used in all (Inner Circle) Englishes?

I can't remember seeing or hearing it in American English, but it's common in Britain. What about Australia etc.? Equinox ◑ 07:38, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
