"prolly" ???

    Hypertext Webster Gateway Error

    No definition found for "prolly" 

    SOUNDS LIKE:

    Main Entry: brol·ly
    Pronunciation: 'brä-lE
    Function: noun
    Inflected Form(s): plural brollies
    Etymology: by shortening & alteration
    Date: circa 1874
    chiefly British : UMBRELLA 

I take it that "prolly" is a similar kind of word derived "by
shortening & alteration" from "probably".  Lets please try to speak
dictionary english, as perhaps determined by a spell checker, on this
list, especially considering all the recent discussion about
Apostolics and scholarship.  :-)
