Is It Daylight Savings Time or Daylight Saving Time?

March 10, 2016 by Barbara McNichol Leave a Comment

by Todd Hunt, Hunt’s Headlines (used by permission)

The correct way to say Daylight Saving Time

Daylight Saving Time begins this Sunday (March 13). Notice I didn’t say Daylight “Savings” Time. There is no “s” at the end of Saving.

We are saving daylight. We’re not putting savings in a bank.

I know it’s not a big deal…but aren’t those the ones that bug us most?

What common misuses bug YOU? Share them here.
