Lapsus

Slips of the tongue are great spies.

Alda Merini


Lapsus

Lapsus


It is a Latin word that literally means “slip” or “missed action“.

The use of the locution refers to a seemingly accidental or meaningless mistake, such as linguistic errors and lapses of memory, that a person makes on the impulse of an unconscious instance.

It is a way of expressing thoughts that would otherwise be removed by internal censorship.

I admit it.
Sometimes it happens to me that I commit some of them.

And when it happens…
Mine are really a joke !
