When I proof read I notice that I choose some funny word orders. When tired I use somewhat random words instead of the right ones.
I'm not sure. I will choose approximate words like saying, "Sweetie can you hand me that bucket?" when I mean a pot to cook with. Not sure if it happens when I'm not tired, because when am I not tired?yeah i get that, but does it happen when you're not tired and i mean with spoken word aswell. it's def worst with written word for me.I'm just curious sorry i'll stop

No, I tend to speak deliberately. There are times where I can't verbally finish my own train of thought, though, so I pass it off with "... you know what I mean." Often, people do; sometimes, they don't.
I suspect that if I were to try to spit it out verbally, it'd be a mangled wreck of a word salad.
I worked briefly for an attorney like that. He finally said to me, "Sometimes I say things I don't mean." I never was sure exactly what I was supposed to do with that information. He eventually got unpaired from me.
He would say the opposite of what he meant, or use the wrong word for the thing he meant. He also would call me by a wrong name, by a name that is similar to mine, but not my name. He even wrote a note to me using that wrong name. It was curious because he knew that he did it, but he didn't seem to realize he was doing it at the time.
Ha, well I can't guarantee that I'm not crazy and in help of need.not exactly the same, because the words aren't rearanged but you do do the substitution thing, which i also do. I'm just happy someones trying to relate, instead of being told i'm crazy and need help

But I often find language laborious and frustrating, and I do stumble over it alot.
Yes, it happens to me that words are in the wrong position (although nothing extreme). It is not like I don't notice the mistake afterwards, it just comes out wrong sometimes.
