How can you hear the omission? Is it in their eyes?

maybe 2020 will be the year the (correctly) hated apostrophe is omitted everywhere else also: let freedom reign (rain)!

TS: Happy New Years vs Daylight Savings
― kinder, Wednesday, 1 January 2020 13:14 (four years ago) link
Apologies in advance and, in way of explanation, I'm Scottish. It's that time of the year where I get annoyed at people saying Happy New Year before it's January 1st and, this will never stop being intensely annoying, pronouncing Auld Lang Syne as Auld Lang Zyne.
