Another friend told me that she loved going to a certain festival because she loved hearing the “gossip” choir (meant ‘gospel’) ... I had a hard time keeping a straight face - she’s sweet & I didn’t want to embarrass her.
Had friend tell me he was so mad he was absolutely lucid (livid.)
Admirable of you. Best not to show any emotion when people do malapropisms. I always remind myself, “that could be me.”
