Invite as a Noun

My ears grate when I hear the use of the word invite as a noun. It's an invitation and to invite is a verb.


I started hearing invite used as a noun in the early 2000s and the dictionary indicates its use as such is informal or colloquial.

Must be an age thing...

And you're using the noun age as an adjective...

It's a Septic thing.
