Although considered temporary errors in speech, slips of the tongue should be investigated and evaluated scientifically since they shape among various patterns and samplings, occur depending on different factors, and may give ideas on the process of the language mechanism. However, it is difficult to work on the topic since it requires a collaboration and joint work among different disciplines such as physic and psychology. Besides, slips of the tongue depend and best observed on natural speech and by this reason, attesting significant examples is troublesome and most of the time it is not possible to record relevant slips of the tongue. In this respect, studies on slips of the tongue could not make progress in both Turcology and Turkish linguistics.
Slips of the tongue have several types, which are generalized and categorized on related studies. Spoonerism, which occurs in natural speech and shows phonological and morphological/lexical features in syntactic formations is one of the slips of the tongue. In this work, this kind of slip of the tongue will be tried to be explained along with some widespread examples from Turkish discourses, which is named çaprazlama, makaslama, mübadele, karmacılık hitherto in the Turkish language. Some personal observations will also be touched upon and dealt with respect to the data found on the Internet and social media.
