首音误置(一种语言现象,指无意中互换两个单词的首音,如将'light a fire'说成'fight a liar')
记忆技巧
谐音联想
将'spoonerism'拆解为'spoon(勺子)+ er + ism'。想象一个牧师(因该词源自牧师William Spooner)用勺子搅拌时,不小心把单词的首音也'搅拌'混了,比如把'tea spoon'说成'pea soon'。
趣味例句
编造一句典型的spoonerism例句:'The dean is often annoyed by the darn keys(原句应为:The keen is often annoyed by the dawn keys)',通过夸张的错误加深记忆。
例句
His accidental spoonerism 'a well-boiled icicle' (instead of 'a well-oiled bicycle') made everyone laugh.(他无意中说出的首音误置'煮熟的冰柱'(本意是'上好油的自行车')逗笑了所有人。)
