Spooner

Enjoy millions of the latest Android apps, games, music, movies, TV, books, magazines & more. Anytime, anywhere, across your devices.

This is an app for finding spoonerisms. A spoonerism is a play on words where the sounds of two words are swapped, for example "Three cheers for our queer old dean!" (dear old queen). They are frequently used humerously in jokes, for example:

Q: "What's the difference between the height of the hit parade and slicing pies in half?"

A: "One's the top of the charts and the other's the chop of the tarts"

To use, simply enter the word you want to spoonerize, and the app will find all the spoonerisms involving that word. Long press on a result to copy to your clipboard.

Internet permissions are needed to connect to the database server that calculates the spoonerisms.
