yeah I wouldn't use it it sounds like really bad english even though it appears to be a real word. The person who marks it may not realise that.

yeah it really doesn't sound like a word, i wouldn't suggest using it in a hsc-related essay, a marker might think you were a fuckwit or something.

i'm asking because our his teacher uses the word and i told him it doesn't exist, we kinda used it as a good example of how history can change by society,

still, neither of us really know if it's a word

hey MicK_eT, did you arrive at the conclusion that done was or wasn't a word, it doesn't sound like one to be, i wouldn't think that you done blood, i'd say you donate blood
