Spoonerisms

Spoonerisms are words or phrases in which letters or syllables get swapped (exchange or substitute). This often happens accidentally in slips of the tongue (or tips of the slung as Spoonerisms are often affectionately called!):

Khayyam:

They say in heaven are beautiful lovers
Sweet taste of wine in the air hovers
Fear not if succumbed to same earthly powers
In the end the same, one discovers.

Meaning:

We strive in life so in the end
Paradise attain, to heavens ascend.
It is better our ways amend
This moment now, joyously spend.

Fitzgerald:

Said one--"Folks of a surly Tapster tell,
And daub his Visage with the Smoke of Hell;
They talk of some strict Testing of us--Pish!
He's a Good Fellow, and 'twill all be well."

Chemical Terms

Two chemical terms (3,641 and 1,913 letters long) have appeared in the Guinness Book of World Records. They were withdrawn (taken away) because they have never been used by chemist s, and there is no theoretical limit to the length of possible legitimate (right) chemical terms. A DNA molecule could have a name of over 1,000,000,000 letters if it was written out in full

A “quotation” is usually a short text - perhaps one or two sentences - written or spoken by one (usually famous) person and often repeated or at least known by others.

Anagram is a word, phrase, or name formed by rearranging the letters of another.

Normally, every syllable in English must have at least one vowel (or vowel sound). So it’s quite surprising to think that there are words with 5 or more consonants in a row. ( in succession)
