    @breadandcircuses I almost always use snuck instead of sneaked, but leaked instead of luck.

    Snuck, absolutely!
    And always, "pled" in a court of law. Pleaded is okay if it's for your life or 5 more minutes on the computer.

    @breadandcircuses I would say it depends on the particular context you’re using it in.

    “Jimmy snuck down the fire escape with his trousers and shoes in hand as Big Tommy busted through the door of Trixie’s flat.”

    “Lord Wellington sneaked across the balustrade, unseen by the watchful eyes of the palace guards .”

    @breadandcircuses Snack. I would prefer a snack.

    Sneaked.
    But then I'm British.
    I have a feeling that it was always 'sneaked' and then 'snuck' crept in as a jokey folksy past tense of sneak??

    @breadandcircuses Snuck always and forever. Sneaked is an abomination, but I suspect it's what people feel is proper English. I also despise 'hanged' even if it's some old-tyme lawspeak. Hung, full stop.

    @breadandcircuses Depends on context I find.

    I like "he snuck into" but also like "he sneaked around".

    Depends: does one like tripping up the immigrants with exceptions, or not?

    WuOfficial,

    @breadandcircuses I use both actually. I use ‘snuck’ as a possessive form of sneak (ex. I snuck through the house) and I use ‘sneaked’ when talking about someone else (ex. They sneaked through the house). I know that’s batshit haha. I also alternate how I pronounce words like ‘lever’. It’s terrible
