spoonerism malapropism graphic

Ever mixed up words in a sentence or said the wrong word by accident?

English can be a challenging language to speak correctly. Even native speakers regularly make mistakes when speaking and some of these can end up being very funny.

Did you know that there are different terms to describe different types of word-related mistakes?

From spoonerisms and malapropisms to blends and portmanteaus, here’s everything you need to know about the ways we mix up words in English:

A ‘spoonerism’ is when a speaker accidentally mixes up the initial sounds or letters of two words in a phrase. The result is usually humorous.

Examples of spoonerisms include:

  • ‘blushing crow’ (instead of ‘crushing blow’)
  • ‘hair bug’ (instead of ‘bear hug’)
  • ‘flock of bats’ (instead of ‘block of flats’)
  • ‘by mad’ (instead of ‘my bad’)
  • ‘shake a tower’ (instead of ‘take a shower’)
  • ‘bound sight’ (instead of ‘sound bite’)
  • ‘bowel feast’ (instead of ‘fowl beast’)
  • ‘cop porn’ (instead of ‘popcorn’)

Where does the term spoonerism come from?

William Archibald Spooner was a reverend and professor at Oxford University in the late 1800s and early 1900s.

Although he was a well-respected scholar and reputedly a very intelligent man – he regularly mixed up his words.

He spoke very quickly but was often thinking a few seconds faster than his mouth, so the sounds of his words got switched around to create entirely different expressions with some odd meanings.

He was so well known for this type of mistake that it was actually named after him!

For example:

  • When looking to visit a Dean at Oxford University, he asked “Is the bean dizzy?” instead of “Is the Dean busy?”.
  • He also claimed that one of the best ways of getting around town was on his well-boiled icicle (that is, his well-oiled bicycle).
  • He also famously said he was chewing the doors when he really was just doing the chores.

Can you guess what advice he was trying to give his sick friend when he told him he should know his blows? (answer below)

Malapropism

A ‘malapropism’ is when an incorrect word is used in a sentence that sounds like the correct word but means something completely different.

Examples of malapropisms include:

  • Pollen is harsh on the sciences. (sinuses)
  • At times, my job can be quite monogamous. (monotonous)
  • Without proper installation, you’ll feel the cold in the winter. (insulation)
  • We awaited their return with baited breath. (bated)
  • His story doesn’t jive with the evidence. (jibe)

Malapropisms are often heard in the world of politics – when politicians get their words mixed up while speaking in public.

A recent one was when a UK politician proudly declared that his intention was to “make breakfast a success” (Brexit).

Another famous example is former Chicago mayor Richard J. Daley who was known for these types of mistakes in the 1980s.

Some of his best examples include:

  • calling a tandem bike a tantrum bike
  • referring to Alcoholics Unanimous instead of Alcoholics Anonymous

What do you think Richard J. Daley meant when he said: “The policeman isn’t there to create disorder, the policeman is there to preserve disorder.”? (answer below)

Where does the term malapropism come from?

In Richard B. Sheridan’s 18th century comedic play The Rivals, the main character’s aunt, Mrs. Malaprop, runs around saying things that sound almost correct – but are just a little bit wrong.

The kind of mistake came to be known as a malapropism thanks to the popularity of the character’s way of speaking.

Some classic examples from the play are:

  • “Your being Sir Anthony’s son, captain, would itself be a sufficient accommodation” (recommendation).
  • “I have since laid Sir Anthony’s preposition before her” (proposition).

Other ways we play with English words

Blends

One of the easiest ways to get words mixed up is to think of one word while trying to say another. This is how blends end up happening.

These mistakes happen regularly in all languages and are usually easy to notice.

One famous example in pop culture is from the 2004 film Mean Girls, where the main character Cady gets nervous and accidentally creates the word grool.

Portmanteaus

Sometimes, though, these blends are intentional and become official words of their own. These new words are called portmanteaus and are quite common in English.

Don’t believe me?

Well, think about the last time you listened to a podcast (iPod + broadcast), breathed in smog (smoke + fog), on met friends for brunch (breakfast + lunch).

A relatively new blended word is for a type of food from Louisiana that has increased in popularity in recent years, especially around American Thanksgiving.

Do you know which three birds are in a turducken? (answer below)

So, if you’re learning a new language and find yourself making mistakes – remember that even native speakers regularly mix up their words.

Who knows? Maybe you’ll accidentally create a new word too. That would be grool!

Answers:

(1) blow his nose;

(2) “The policeman isn’t there to create disorder, the policeman is there to prevent disorder.”;

(3) a turkey, a duck and a chicken

Tip: See my list of the Most Common Mistakes in English. It will teach you how to avoid mis­takes with com­mas, pre­pos­i­tions, ir­reg­u­lar verbs, and much more.

English speakers are very creative when it comes to making up new words by combining parts of words that already exist. For example, most people know that “brunch” is a combination of “breakfast” and “lunch”, but did you know that “smog” comes from “smoke” and “fog”?

There are lots and lots of such words in English, many more than in other European languages. One of the reasons for that is, of course, that English has many more speakers than other European languages (with the exception of Spanish), so there are more people who can potentially create a catchy new word.

Nevertheless, I believe that the main reason is much more pragmatic. English is a fairly analytic language, which in linguistic jargon refers to a language that, simply put, conveys the function of a word using word order and things like prepositions rather than endings and prefixes. Words in English are thought of as isolated units, whereas words in other European languages often carry additional information, and it is much easier to merge two isolated units than to merge two words carrying a lot of additional information, some of which would inevitably be lost during merging.

But enough of that theoretical nonsense. Let’s take a look at actual examples of such words in English.

English portmanteaus

A portmanteau is a type of blend word in which the beginning of one word is combined with the final part of another word. For example, it may surprise you that the word “bit” used in computing (as in “megabit”) is a portmanteau of ”binary” and “digit” (its development was probably influenced by the fact that “bit” already was an English word meaning a small amount of something). Sometimes the two parts may overlap, e.g. “smash”, which is composed of “smack” and “mash” with “ma” connecting the two parts.

Let’s take a look at some of the most common portmanteaus in English that are more or less accepted (note that the list excludes brand and product names, which are often based on a portmanteau):

alphanumeric = alphabetic + numeric
advertorial = advertisement +‎ editorial
bit = binary + digit (only in computing)
brainiac = brain + maniac
breathalyzer = breath + analyzer
Brexit = Britain + exit
brunch = breakfast + lunch
camcorder = camera + recorder
dumbfound = dumb (mute) + confound
electrocute = electro- + execute
email = electronic + mail
emoticon = emotion + icon
endorphin = endogenous + morphine
fanzine = fan + magazine
forex = foreign + exchange
guesstimate = guess + estimate
infomercial = information + commercial
keytar = keyboard + guitar
labradoodle = labrador + poodle
mechatronics = mechanics +‎ electronics
metrosexual = metropolitan +‎ heterosexual
moped = motor + pedals (borrowed from Swedish)
motel = motor + hotel
napalm = naphthenic + palmitic
Oxbridge = Oxford + Cambridge (used in the UK to refer collectively to the University of Oxford and the University of Cambridge)
newscast = news + broadcast
paratrooper = parachute + troop + -er
phablet = phone + tablet
pulsar = pulsating + star
sexting = sex + texting
sheeple = sheep + people
smash = smack +‎ mash
smog = smoke + fog
Spanglish = Spanish + English
televangelist = television + evangelist
transistor = transconductance or transfer + resistor
vlog = video + blog (itself a shortening of web + log)
vitamin = vital + amine (introduced by a Polish biochemist when it was thought that all vitamins contained an amino acid)
webinar = web + seminar
workaholic = work + -a- + alcoholic

There is also an archaic word “cameleopard”, composed of “camel” and “leopard”, which means “giraffe”. If you are interested in the history of that word (and of the word “giraffe”), you can read my article about them.

Blend words combining the beginnings of two words

Another type of blend words, which are less common than portmanteaus in English, is formed by taking the first part of one word, the first part of another word, and merging them into one word. Here are the most common such words:

Amerind = American + Indian (referring to native Americans)
botox = botulism + toxin
cyborg = cybernetic + organism
cosplay = costume + play
hazmat = hazardeous + mataterial
modem = modulator + demodulator
sitcom = situation + comedy

Word Scramble Game

What is Word Scramble Game

Martin Naydel created Word Scramble Games or Jumbled words in the year 1954. In the game, the letters that can make a meaningful word are scrambled or mixed up together in a random fashion when a person plays word scramble game. Players have to rearrange the letters to make a meaningful sentence. The game is more like the tasks you used to do to learn words and spellings when you were a kid. One needs to arrange the vowels and consonants to make a word which has a meaning.

Say, for example, «CIPFIOCA.» Rearrange the letters, and yes, you are right! The word is «PACIFIC.» Another example is «LEPAES», which is easier than the former one. It turns out to be «PLEASE» when you unjumble the letters and rearrange them.

How to Play Word Scramble Games?

As we have mentioned, in word scramble games, one has to re-arrange or unjumble the scrambled letters to make a meaningful word. This game is also known as unscrambling.

Anagrams

Anagram scramble is a part of word scramble. Anagram scramble refers to words or phrases that are spelled by rearranging letters. The word ‘anagram’ means to discover hidden meanings by reading letters out of order. But when you play anagram scramble, you don’t have to find any hidden purpose as such. You need to see letters and unjumble them from a set of scrambled words to create words that are present in it.

By unjumbling those letters, you can make meaningful words of different lengths.

For instance, «CIPFIOCA» – when you unjumble the letters, you get a seven-letter word called «PACIFIC.»

Again when you can pick words of different lengths from the jumbled letters «CIPFIOCA»- for instance, three-letter words like «CAP,» and «PAC.» Besides, you can get a two-letter word, like «If.»

You can play word scramble games, and anagram scramble both online and offline. Millions of sites on the internet allow you to perform word unscramble games free of cost or with a modicum cost of membership.

Letter Arrangements. Unscramble Online vs. Offline

Jumbled letters can be arranged in different ways. Here are the different styles of letter arrangements:

Vertical Letter Arrangement

The jumbled letters can be placed vertically one after another, just like a column of letters.

Horizontal Letter Arrangement

On the other hand, the letters of a scrambled word can be present horizontally. It looks like a row of letters arranged haphazardly.

Triangular Letter Arrangement

The letters can be randomly present inside a triangle. You can pick letters in three different ways-

You can either choose the letters from X-axis, i.e., from the horizontal size.

Or you can choose from Y-axis to create a meaningful word.

In addition to this, you can choose the scattered letters from the whole triangle to create a word. You need to follow this method when you have to create a lengthy word.

Two Essential Steps for Word Scramble Players

  1. When playing offline, you need a board to rearrange the letter-engraved tiles. While playing and racking up your points, you need to rearrange the letter-engraved tiles on the board to create meaningful words.
  2. You need to keep the right order of vowels and consonants in your mind so that you create a meaningful word. Usually, you score 1 point for each four-letter word and 5 points for each ten-letter words. You score more points as the word gets lengthy.
