That depends on your grammatical structure of your sentence
That is all.
My cousin blames the most egregious grammatical errors on being from the Midwest and I always argue that surely some people there know how to speak English!I'm not sure if it is a Midwest thing or a Michigan thing, but we frequently add on a S when it isn't need. Meijer isn't Meijer to most, it is Meijers.
I think it is because we are referencing the store they own, and not the person. They own the store, hence the possessive S.
There is no “s” in Kroger either but if you are from Ohio there is - it is Kroger’s. We do that all the time. I actually thought Meijers was the name of that store way back when. It was years before I realized there is no “s”. So yep it is O’hana’s to us lol (although to be honest only when I speak it out loud - not when I write it)

DINNING IS NOT A WORD! GET YOURSELF TOGETHER!
That is all.
Me too. Every time. I'm glad I'm not the only one.What irks me about that is I can’t stop myself from pronouncing in my head just as it is misspelled.
“The laundry needs washed.” THE WORST!
Actually, it is a word.Irregardless - dinning is not a word !
When to use "me" as opposed to "I." Me and my husband went to 'Ohana. Break it up! You would never say "Me went to 'Ohana." My mother went to the store with my sister and I. You would never say "My mother went to the store with I." Did they stop teaching this in elementary school?
