Anyone else wonder how some folks will say language sometimes changes related to people speaking lazily, but then you get words changing meaning/emerging with extra syllables like “irregardless” or “disorientated”?
When posts like this pop up, it makes me wonder 'bout those extra syllable words, “So how’s that happen, then?”
Not everyone is a native english speaker. Those words can also be translation errors because they sound more similar to the word in their native language.
But no, seriousnessly, get a pinch of lazy, add a pinch of troll, throw in some euphemism, mix thoroughly for a while, and shit happens, like birds and bees.

For sure! I’ve mainly heard/read these from native English speakers, which is where more of the confusion comes from.
Sometimes it’s discombobulating, isn’t it?

Boned and deboned mean the same thing.

People want to sound fancy.
