'Howzit'

Hello,

Could you tell me what is the function of the 'it' in this sentence?

Please say howzit it to Nicki for me.

Can I say 'from me' too?

Thanks

  • " I don't think you can phrase it as "Say how's it to her FROM me," which is just a wrong usage of preposition.

I don't think so.

It's either "Send her the regards from me" or "Please say howzit to her for me."

I don't think you can phrase it as "Say how's it to her FROM me,"

But what about the 'it'?

I noticed that you spelled howzit as 'how's it'. So there are two ways of spelling it, right?

The "howzit" here is just an abbreviated form of "How is it",

they're the same thing.

Ahh, now I see why 'it' is used here.

Thank you.
