English Language & Usage Asked by aschultz on June 29, 2021
I enjoy thinking up spoonerisms in my spare time and came up with "why, indeed" and "dyin’ weed."
But I don’t know if this can qualify as a spoonerism, because
Would either of these disqualify my two phrases from being a spoonerism, and if not, are there special sub-categories for spoonerisms that aren’t straightforward?
ETA: another possible subcategory might be "In-groups grin. Oops." Where sounds aren’t swapped but rather the "gr" is shifted from one word to the next, as opposed to a more standard construction "See, well, we sell."
