Vad som är korrekt svenska väcker stort engagemang, inte minst bland språkpoliser som gärna påpekar fel på sociala medier.
– De verkar finnas i alla åldersgrupper och särskrivningar är det de ogillar allra mest, säger Anna Heuman vid Örebro universitet.

2022 June 8, “Stavfel och särskrivningar får språkpoliser att se rött [Spelling errors and incorrectly writing as separate words make grammar police see red]”, in Forskning.se:

What is correct Swedish arouses great commitment, not least among grammar police who like to point out mistakes on social media.
– They seem to be found in all age groups and incorrectly writing as separate words is what they dislike the most, says Anna Heuman at Örebro University.

Vid tryckningen har den skillnaden gjorts att särskrivning har brukats i klassiska citat och hopskrivning i nylatinska texter.

1941, Jacob Wallenberg, edited by Nils Afzelius, Samlade skrifter II, page 548:

When printing, the distinction has been made that writing as separate words has been used in classical quotations and compound words in neo-Latin texts.

Angående avstavningen få vi påpeka, att något förslag angående denna sak icke av oss gjorts, och vi anse, att denna fråga liksom frågorna om språkriktighet, särskrivning och annat dylikt icke böra sammanblandas med frågan om ljudbeteckningen.

1886 January 26, J. A. Lyttkens, F. A. Wulff, “I rättstafningsfrågan. [Regarding the issue of orthography.]”, in Svenska Dagbladet (letter to the editor), page 3:

Regarding the hyphenation, we may point out that we have not made any proposal regarding this matter, and we believe that this question, like the questions about correctness of language, writing as separate words and such, should not be mixed up with the question of the sound designation.

Coordinate term: busringning (“prank call”)

Här [SOS Alarm] har fler så kallade okynnessamtal registrerats under årets tre första månader, än under hela 2022.

2023 April 23, Daniel Strömbäck, “Antalet busringningar till SOS ökar: ”Ensamma som mår psykiskt dåligt” [The number of prank calls to SOS is increasing: "Lonely people who feel mentally ill"]”, in SVT Nyheter:

Here [SOS Alarm], more so-called unnecessary calls have been registered in the first three months of the year, than in the whole of 2022.

Jo, det blev populärt med okynnessamtal [när de automatiska telefonstationerna slog igenom]. Folk ringde för att skoja med andra och trodde att de inte kunde bli ertappade.

2012 November 25, Johan Lindberg, “”Telefontornet brinner!” ["The telephone tower is on fire!"]”, in Svenska Dagbladet:

Yes, prank calls became popular [when the automatic telephone exchanges caught on]. People called to prank others, thinking they couldn't get caught.

Då var dock öfvergångsafgiften tio öre, hvarför man väl får förmoda, att få verkliga okynnessamtal förekommit, utan att ett verkligt samtrafikbehof förefunnits, som nu blifvit lidande.

1903 September 2, “Ingen återgång! Förbättrade rikstelefonapparater. [No going back! Improved national telephone sets.]”, in Stockholms-Tidningen, page 2:

At that time, however, the transfer fee was ten öre, which is why one can assume that few real unnecessary calls occurred, without a real need for interconnection, which has now suffered.
