I Like Your Mondegreen

Dictionary.com gives the spotlight today on one of my favorite words:  MONDEGREEN

It is one of my all-time faves because mondegreens can be mindbenders. Astute individuals such as readers of Bonni's Blog have been found recoiled under elf bridges, too ashamed to show their faces as they ran from ridicule and misinterpretation after chanting completely wrong lyrics to songs everyone should know. (Shame, shame if you still don't know "Bye Bye, Miss American Pie.")
