Talk:make due

As of this edit, Google News shows numerous results for "make due" that match the meaning of "make do." I haven't counted, but such examples aren't difficult to find no matter how far one scrolls:

• "...Florida’s jobless have to make due with $6.88 an hour."
• "Native bees make due with..."
• "Notre Dame work to make due without..."
• "Parents are trying to make due at home..."
• "...his township will have to make due once the second site closes."
• "...having to make due in a different arrangement has been trying."
• "...have to make due with the tools at our disposal."

It is an eggcorn, not a misspelling; journalists surely know how to spell the word "do." They are grammatically using the term "make due" with "make" as a transitive verb and "due" as a noun, which is a plausible interpretation. 24.214.255.234 20:34, 15 April 2021 (UTC)Meik Du
