Login or log in – What’s the difference.
These are two different words.
Login is a noun and to log in is a verb.
It’s easy to tell them apart. If you, in theory, would need an article before the word or a possessive determiner like his, her, its’, etc, then you must write “login”.
If you need to use “to” like “How do I log in?” then it’s a verb and you have to write “log” and “in” separately. If you need
Like if you forgot your login but you want to log in, then send me an email and we’d set something up so you could log in.

- Robert Burns: Halloween: The following poem will, by many readers, be well enough understood; but for the sake of those who are unacquainted with the manners and traditions of the country where the scene is cast, notes are added to give some account of the principal charms and spells of that night, so big with prophecy to the peasantry in the west of Scotland. The passion of prying into futurity makes a striking part of the history of human nature in its rude state, in all ages and nations; and it may be some entertainment to a philosophic mind, if any such honour the author with a perusal, to see the remains of it among the more unenlightened in our own.-R.B.

Log in or Login: What’s the Difference?
The digital revolution has expanded the number of words we need to describe the events and actions of our daily lives. However, as with all growth, some new elements can be confusing. Due to the rapid adoption of password protection as a security feature for hardware and digital services, new terms for these credentials and their use have also come into being.
As you can see from the following chart, log in has seen sporadic use throughout the 19th and 20th centuries. English users have only been shortening the phrase to a single word since roughly the 1980s—coinciding with the widespread adoption of home computing.
This chart is by no means exact or scientific, since it only counts words from books written in English since 1800. It’s still useful, however, for identifying a long term trend.
Many people aren’t sure whether login or log in is correct when describing these security credentials. Should this term be one word, or two? Since we use it as a noun, a verb, and sometimes as an adjective, the answer depends on context.
What is the Difference Between Log in and Login?
Is login one word? In this article, I will compare log in vs. login, and I will use each in a sentence to illustrate how they are best used. Plus, at the end, I will show you a memory trick to help remember when each term is appropriate.
When to Use Log in
What does log in mean? If you’re using this term as a verb, separate it into two words. A tech support agent might tell a confused coworker,
- Log in to the computer and adjust the network settings.
-or-
- Log in with your new username and password.
As a verb, log in is broken into two words.
When to Use Login
What does login mean? When using this term as a noun, shorten it to a single word. Here are some examples:
- Your login is your username and password.
- Do not trust anyone else with your login.
You can also use login as an adjective. Adjectives describe nouns. Here are some sentences where login is used as an adjective:
- Your login information is your username and password.
- You have used 3 of your 5 login attempts.
- And I still haven’t been able to delete my LinkedIn account, since I’ve long forgotten my login credentials and apparently need to send the company a copy of my driver’s license to prove who I am in order to finally deactivate it. –USA Today
As a noun, login is one single word.
Trick to Remember the Difference
If you can’t remember whether log in or login is correct, there is an easy way to remind yourself.
Noun is a single word that ends with an N. So is login. If you keep this fact in mind, it should be easy to remember to use login as a noun.
