Learn English – Plural of “uh-oh” and “oh-no”

apostrophegrammatical-number

Does the plural form of uh-oh and oh-no include an apostrophe? So is it "uh-oh's and oh-no's" or "uh-ohs and oh-nos"?

I've seen it both ways and cannot find a definitive answer anywhere.

Best Answer

I asked my meme-minded son to check his texts. In this little electronic corpus, he found seven instances of "oh noes!!!" with no hyphen, no apostrophe, and too many exclamation points.

An official source is Merriam-Webster's New Words and Slang, which includes oh noes.
