Sorry to be 'that guy', but it's "jibe."

>>mayorm+(OP)
Seems very pedantic considering that people have been saying jive since the 40s according to Merriam-Webster[1].

Hey, home', I can dig it. He ain't gonna lay no mo' big rap-up on you, man.

  [Subtitle: Yes, he is wrong for doing that]

>>mayorm+(OP)
An upvote to you, fellow pedant. We stand together.

Yes, but people haven't been using it incorrectly for long enough for it to be considered acceptable, by the very citation you've given:

> This does raise the question of why we don't enter this sense of jive, even though we have evidence of its use since the 1940s. [...] So far, neither jive nor gibe as substitutions for jibe has this kind of record [literally hundreds of years], but it seems possible that this use of jive will increase in the future, and if it does dictionaries will likely add it to the definition.

Lay 'em down, and smack-em yack-em. COLD got to be!

>>Karell+hR
Apparently, many English speakers consider it to be acceptable, and have done so for more than half a century.

>>duderi+gZ
Hey, you know what they say.

>>mayorm+(OP)
Not sorry enough, apparently.

As a non-native english speaker, I didn't even know about jibe, while knowing about jive.

>>mander+Ne1
Lots of English speakers consider "could of" to be acceptable, and have similarly done so for a few decades now. That doesn't make them right ;-)
