A mondegreen / Ë m É n d Éª É¡ r iË n / is a mishearing or misinterpretation of a phrase as a result of near-homophony, in a way that gives it a new meaning. Mondegreens are most often created by a person listening to a poem or a song; the listener, being unable to clearly hear a lyric, substitutes words that sound similar and make some kind of sense. American writer Sylvia Wright coined the term in 1954, writing about how as a girl she had misheard the lyric ...and laid him on the green in a Scottish ballad as ...and Lady Mondegreen.
