# a spoonerism
is when you swap the first letters of the words...

# eh?
Spoonerisms are where the first letters get mixed up.

like Kate & Sidney,
or "a half-warmed fish entered his mind"
or "it was a blushing crow"
or "we'll have the hags flung out"
and so on...

# or
other letters, or parts.

# bit of a purist i am on the subject of Spooner
i think it should just be first letters... stretching to 2 letters if it works
