Here’s a good one culled from the day’s proofreading work: in a document discussing the “personal journal” feature of a wireless handheld, a copywriter for my agency spelled “journal” as “jernal.” Incidentally, the copywriters are all supposed to be college-educated, and they’re probably making more money than I am. Oy.
It doesn’t exactly qualify as “Egregious Corporate Speak” but it’s pretty egregious on its own terms…
Is this a typo or a consistent spelling?
Fortunately, just a typo, but it was an outstanding one…
