    I presume you mean he said "That will be a whole lot of fun" ?

    Have you ever met him before?

    NO thad behold fun exact words.
    I have met him once before but for just two mins.

    It could mean any number of things, poor grammar, bad spelling, predictive text mistake, maybe he wasn't paying attention as he wrote, my guess would be it was an attempt at a very formal way of saying 'that will be fun', perhaps sarcastic, perhaps not , but really who knows?... why can't your gf just ask him what he meant?

    I presume (hope) she showed you this text and you weren't rooting through her phone behind her back?

    If he put an aposthrope between the "t" and "d" like that'd it would mean "that would". Behold means to see or observe. So he probably means it would be fun to have you there

    ya there was a aposthrope there alright just wasnt to sur what he meant i was thinking the oppisite of what you said.

    Autocorrect on an iPhone could make "that'd be fun" into "that'd behold fun" rather easily.

    Is English his second or third language ?

    This tbh.

    It was very clearly a typo and I'm unsure as to why you would be so concerned about this that you felt the need to post here. Are you normally this insecure?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4 freddie 86


    its not that im insecure but i was more so just looking for a meaning tbh.
    Its just differnt places seem to have diff phrases and how they use certain words in sentences.
    Thanks for clearing that up for me apprecicate it.

    It's nothing but a typo OP. I think you're worrying far too much about absolutely nothing mate.
