Things We Say Wrong

Also, on the vein of how weird language is, supposedly, researchers at Cambridge University have concluded that it doesn't matter what order the letters of a word are in; as long as the first and last letters are in the proper place, you can scramble the rest of the word however you like, and it's still readable. See if you can "translate" the following:
