Either it's just me or there's a spate of sniggering going on in web language circles lately about eggcorns and it has occurred to me that the language must be littered with what were originally eggcorns but have become standard accepted usage. The only one that comes to mind is Jerusalem artichoke but surely there are more. Can anyone think of any?
