This is inspired by a thread posted by venus68. On reading her Words that trip you up! I smugly thought my spelling is pretty good … well normally. However when it comes to speaking there are certain words that trip me up. No matter how I try it comes out wrong … in fact so wrong even I can hear it as it comes out. I developed all sorts of techniques to combat it but they still sound out.
The interesting thing is they're similar types of words: tragedy, strategy etc. So there must be some physiological condition or something. Please say it's not just me. sad
It's just you!!! :shock: :shock: lol :lol: :lol: wink
It's not just you hunie, I have the same problem (as you well know!) I'm always having trouble with my worms.. oops sorry words... cool
I always say 'philosophical' wrong.
Don't know why.
Philosophy, philosopher... they're fine. But philosophical just comes out slightly wrong.

Whenever Alex says "Can I have......" my head says no but when I speak it comes out as "Yes".
I don't think this has anything to do with word slips.......it has more to do with, my life would be made a misery if I used the "N" word lol

I'm married to a bloke who genuinely cannot distinguish between "th" and "f" when speaking. Despite the best efforts of his beautifully spoken nan when he was growing up, my own and the efforts of several friends....he still can't hear a difference! banghead
My sister in law could say Newcastle-upon-tyne, but if she tried to say Newcastle-under-lyme, the Newcastle turned into "newcastleabuble" Go figure!
yes all the time things end up as phaphaphapha or paapapapapa because I have got all tongue tied. I put it down to the fact that my brain is racing all the time ahead of what I am actually saying or typing for that matter.
The reason I spell words incorrectly amazes me as I know the difference between where and wear, yet often I will write the wrong one without noticing. I always have to read back. Same happens with my speech only it's words tripping up because I'm thinking of a word where I know the meaning but not sure how it is said or something like that.

I think I must have a similar problem? My brain's either racing ahead, or I'm thinking about something else, while my mouth is having the same conversation. If that makes any sense?

I fall over words when I'm tired and it's usually words that I can say and then I start stuttering redface I've a dreadful stutter which I can control quiet well but tiredness is a killer and I lose all control of my tongue sad
I don't have problems with the words themselves per se but when I'm nervous my mouth dries to such a degree that my tongue just won't function and tends to stick to the roof of my mouth. Job interviews were rather funny affairs looking back. redface
When I'm tired, in my mind the words are crystal clear, but they somehow come out sounding like wibble, wibble, wibble, … and then I stand there thinking Huh???
God knows what it sound like to everyone else.
