here is a small table with linguistic specialities you might encounter when chatting with certain people (including me 
).

| *word/letter | Add ore replace something with word/letter somewhere in the previous statement | Doe: I’m really diking Dendemann right now. Doe: *digging |
| s/a/b/ | Substitute b for a in the former statement | Fangirl: I’m going to marry ATL in september. Fangirl: s/marry/see/ Woah, where did that come from ;D |
