According to popular online dictionaries, the word “straightaway” is available in two forms: “straightaway” and “straight away”. However, this test result only accepts “straightaway”. Could you please look into this matter?
Here are some of the popular dictionaries online:
1. http://www.english-test.net/esl/learn/english/grammar/ir016/esl-test.php.
2. http://www.thefreedictionary.com/straight+away.
3. http://www.oxfordadvancedlearnersdictionary.com/dictionary/+straight+away.#straight_1.
Thank you.
Best wishes,
