A speech error is a non-canonical aspect of an utterance that was not intended by the speaker.

Mispronunciations or speech errors can be divided into different types.

  1. anticipations: 'a leading list' (for 'a reading list')
  2. perseverations: 'at the beginning of the burn' (for 'at the beginning of the turn')
  3. reversals or spoonerisms: 'heft lemisphere' (for 'left hemisphere')
(Examples are taken from Fromkin 1973)
