Strategery (from a Bushism I think?) + tech . Anyone know the word for a deliberately mispronounced word like strategery? Trying to think of others but they're escaping me at the moment.

- thedailymail 5y agoI think "malapropism" can be used for both intentionally and unintentionally mangled words.
- sydthrowaway 5y agoisn't intentionally mangled a portmanteau?
- robbedpeter 5y agoI think a portmanteau requires every piece of the word to be part of another word, and semantics from each component word are partially maintained by the new meaning. Malapropism is what I was looking for, though - thanks to you both.
