I'm from the UK but I'm guessing that Uriel and nensy are from the US and that that's why there's a difference between how we spell no-one.
I guess no-one spelling will be considered obsolete, just like to-morrow, week-end or good-by. It's a question of time.
I dunno I was always taught to use no-one and if we missed out the hyphen then we were marked down. And no I didn't finish school ages ago, in fact I'm going to be finishing in 2 months time. Not so obsolete in my corner of the world.
Can't speak for nensy, but yes, I'm from the US. I've always thought of no-one as a British spelling.
No-one is not turned into a compound word as most people would think the double o would be unacceptably odd looking: 'noone'. There is an alternative but very rare spelling I like: 'noöne'.
Similarly co-operate can be spelled coöperate and co-ordinate as coördinate, re-enact as reënact etc.

Whichever which way you spell it.....it's the WEEKEND / WEEK-END again. Hae a guid one!
Hyphenated words always give problems but the general practice is to run them all through as one unit with no hypen even though some of them look a wee bit weird when the second part begins with a vowel...reestablish, reorganise, reiterate (although that is accepted without question more or less).

The whole sentence says:
Sorry. It is just that I blew the final (failed the final exams) and now my parents are going to get all bent out of shape (get angry). I like totally drew a blank on everything (I couldn't think of the answer to any of the questions).
Thank you!
