Question

So "no" and "know" can't be used after a statement to make it a question, like asked above?

Donagan

Top Answerer

They can be used that way and often are, but it's a colloquial usage and is not considered proper in formal speech or writing.

Question

You will be reading this book in know time or no time?

Maura Behan

Community Answer

The correct phrase is "in no time," meaning very quickly or soon. In the phrase "in no time," "no" means "none" or "zero," implying that the action will happen so quickly that it will seem like almost no time has passed.
