All of a Sudden.....

What a strange phrase.

"ALL OF A SUDDEN"...also known as Suddenly : . 1. Happening without previous notice or with very brief notice; coming unexpectedly, or without the common preparation; immediate; instant; speedy.


Question:

If something happens with limited notice, is it appropriate to say it happened 'SOME of a sudden'? If more than adequate notice has been given, would that be 'NONE of a sudden'?


Suddenly I have a headache behind my eye.

  2. Don't get me started on English errors, such as misplaced apostrophes.
    Or is it apostrophe's? Apostrphes'?
    Just kidding. I know it was the first one.
