Speech error in the bookstore
First day of classes this semester and I was buying books in the bookstore. I had a problem with the register and they had to return a book that they rung up twice on the register. She was saying “books” so often that she got primed for it really strong. So when the transaction was finally done she asked “Do you want a book with that?” instead of “Do you want a bag with that?”
Yep - and both monosyllabic nouns that start with /b/! Did she catch her error?
