I think more people need to know this:
Tmesis: Inserting a word in the middle of another. “Hoo-bloody-ray” and “un-freaking-believable.”

I always say it like “sow”, but not like sowing seeds, more like the beginning of the word
“sour”. I’ve always said that, and people at restaurants don’t look at me any weirder
than a regular person would.

I think I did teach you that and it’s pronounced “tuh-mee-sis.” So there.
