The Joys of Being a Linguist

In Wreck-It Ralph, King Candy talks about putting Ralph in his "fungeon",

King Candy: "Fungeon, fun dungeon. You know, it's a play on words."

FALSE. It's a blended word. A play on words is a pun. Know your linguistic terminology.

That is all :)

Don't get me wrong, I love Wreck-It Ralph because it has French in it. But I felt the need to specify that one part :P
