Usage notes

  • Unlike most pronouns, no one is usually written as two words or with a hyphen:
    • American users (COCA) prefer the spelling no one to either Template:M or Template:M by more than 500 to 1.
    • UK users (BNC) prefer no one to no-one 4 to 1, and to noone 50 to 1.
  • No one has a higher degree of formality than Template:M.

Template:Rfref

  • In written use, American users (COCA) use no one 60% more than they use nobody, whereas UK users (BNC) use nobody three times more than they use Template:M. For the spoken BNC usage, mostly informal, nobody is used nearly 10 times more often than all spellings of no one.
