Make it a spoonerism yourself and see if you'd reassess if you'd like one.

I am reminded of another word play, not a spoonerism but a pun/euphemism.  The title of stage show "Oh! Calcutta!" is a play on the French "O, quel cul t'as!"   :o :o

See, you've lost me again.

This is an English language forum, ...and i'm one of the very uneducated.



Read and write, 1 to 10, and 'up' is where the sky is.

GAWD, Yadda???!!!!    "O, quel cul t'as!" (pronounced Oh, Calcultta!, sort of) means "oh what an arse you have". The poster for the show alludes (original doesn't have the veil):

Was watching the cricket. Travus Head was dropped while batting for SA. The commentator said,"Queensland have given Head a chance."
