believin

Accepting as true

Believin is an informal spelling of believing, capturing the dropped g of casual speech.

It appears most often in song lyrics and titles, where it carries an optimistic, upbeat tone: Don't stop believin'.

The spelling signals informality, folksy warmth, or musical rhythm rather than standard written English.
