Could someone enlighten me. How do you spell one smiley two smil...Is it smilies or smileys?

I believe the Latin is "smila" \:]

Either! Try entering either spelling in Google and you will get a zillion hits on both.

Serious Welles, if I would use Google as my dictionary... :D

If a word is not accepted as an English word (I couldn't find it in Merriam-Webster as a noun for example), then you just make of it what ever you want to make of it. 8}

http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=smiley however mentions it and says that it's written 'smileys'. Mmm, I would think "smilies" like Mark.

http://dictionary.cambridge.org/define.asp?key=92351&dict=CALD mentions it, but doesn't say anything about the plural form.

I wonder if we'll ever know the right answer. \:]
