It seems "marinate" and "marinade" are often misused. Marinate is a verb and marinade is a noun. I marinate my chicken in a citrus marinade. I'm not lecturing, I'm just reinforcing my own understanding.
"There's abit of an upswing going in Newark and its surrounding neighborhoods.... at least 15 projects with another 40 in the pipeline for the not to distance future. The Ironbound is also seeing numerous abet smaller projects going up."
In an era when so many people believe that "a lot" is now one non-word, I guess it was inevitable that "a bit" would also morph into one non-word. The confusion about "not too distant" is a mistake that I have never seen previously, and I am assuming that "abet" is supposed to be "albeit".
I saw that one, too. I wonder if the poster meant the bird? That would be bizarre!
