My favorite disspellings

Monday, Dec 10, 2001

Every now and then I or a friend misspells a word and the misspelling completely replaces the original in my written (and sometimes verbal) vocabulary, or at least my vocabulary with that person.

Some of my favorites 'disspellings' are:

broken: ab0rken
phereomone: pherognome
porn: pron (common usage)
remedy: rememdy
spellcheck: spekkcheck

Do you have any disspellings? What are they?

If you like it, please share it.
