I have a new word for you. First, some background:
- typo
- /tay·po/ Short for “typographical error” — historically, an error introduced by the typesetting process; now, any spelling or orthographic error in a text.
- pasteo
- /pes·to/ Neologism Etymology: riff on “typo”. A typographical error introduced by careless use of Copy & Paste functionality on a computer.
And now, my addition:
- search-and-replaceto
- /sərč ænd riplesto/ Neologism Etymology: riff on “typo” by way of rime with “pasteo”. An error introduced by careless use of Search & Replace (or, in my case, :%s/foo/bar in vim).
OED, are you listening?
