You might be wondering what a “scoodie” is. Well, what better place to find out than scoodie.net! Lets begin by saying that scoodie is a common misspell for “scoobie” or “Scooby”. Yes Scooby – as in that funny quirky, cartoon dog from the 1970s Scooby-doo. People searching for this notorious character tend to misspell Scooby by using “ie” instead of a “y” at the end of the word as you can see in the image below.

There is a lot of confusion regarding the “ie vs y” rule. Y is an English suffix that is used to create an adjective. “ie” is a variant spelling of “y” mostly used for nouns. For example: If we take the noun “steam” and want to turn it into an adjective we would have to add a “y” at the end – “steamy”. On the other hand if we take the noun “night” and create another noun from this word we would add “ie” at the end – “nightie”. This is just a general rule of the “ie vs y” and there are a lot of exceptions to it. But in this specific case, though Scooby is a noun the correct spelling is Scooby, not Scoobie, not Scoodie.

Scoodie – Other Common Misspell

Scoodie is also a common misspell for the hooded scarf with an H. This fashion-forward scarf with a hood attached is a multi-purpose garment that can be worn for warmth or as a fashion statement. When people are searching for this phenomenal accessory they tend to forget the “h” spelling it scoodie. The problem is that “scoodie” is not the right spelling for this scarf + hoodie combination. The word does not properly reflect that the garment is a combination of both a scarf and hoodie – the word scoodie has short-changed the hood! The right way to combine these words scarf + hoodie, and therefore the right spelling for the garment, is this way: spelled with an H.
