@26characters this is a nice addendum to the malaprop thread https://t.co/bLd6xKHcF8

@Andrew_Arnold @26characters My mother is a regular Mrs Malaprop. For example, she always calls paracetemol 'parametacrecol'. Her best was calling 'The Whirling Dervishes' the 'Twirling Devonshires.'

@26characters I used to say “I’m only chocking” instead of joking. My family have used the phrase ever since.

@beccamagnus @26characters Ours was named the 'dobbler' - still is!
