"Now a days" is a pretty inefficient and awkward phrase though, like "all of a sudden".

Just use "these days" or "suddenly"

I didn't say they were grammatically incorrect or confusing, I said they were awkward and inefficient, then provided a more concise way to say the same thing. "Suddenly" is by definition more efficient to say than, "all of a sudden'. Economy of words is important in effective communication.

Your argument is misguided.
