Verlan: French slang that inverses words

I believe it's because people don't realize that "Aujourd'hui" originally meant "the day of today".

Even though you hear people say "au jour d'aujourd'hui" it's considered incorrect and should be avoided [1]. It's better to say "A ce jour".

Give this expression another hundred years, and it will become a common word.

But it won't enter the dictionary before additionally passing through verlan recomposition at least once.
