Why do kids do this? (crying when something is taken from them)

That doesn’t really contradict what I said. “Till” is the original word and all the others follow from it. Other than “till” and “until,” though, the rest are superfluous and redundant, especially since they are pronounced exactly the same as “till.”

I was contesting the implicit assertion that “til” is non-standard.

Now I am wondering what strange force is moving me to speak so formally today.
