Since when did 'definitely' change its spelling to 'definately', and what the heck does 'would of' mean?

I'm thinking its some new fangled version of 'would have'?

I think I must be getting old.. I'm 33...

Oh and 'in one fowl swoop' makes me chuckle- it was 'one fell swoop' when I was a lad.

I knew I'd regret posting this!

Surely this one is grammatically correct?

Actually, its "Would have", shortened to "Would've" and then bastardised to "Would of" as it sounds the same and people are generally thick...
