See this!

TELAWAA: Friday, June 3, 2016

One of my jolly good fellows requested that I should explain the difference between "despite" and "inspite" (Just the way he put it).

To him, that is very difficult to figure out.

Hear me out, please: There is no such single word as "inspite"; what we have is "in spite".

People often write "inspite", but that doesn't exist in English, please.
What we have is "in spite", which can be substituted for "despite".

NB: Can you note that "in spite" is not one word. It is two words.

Please note this, and mind your grammar, will you?
