Cogito ergo sum.

– Rene DeCartes

The phrase means “I think therefore I am” but if you remove the g from cogito, you end up with “Coito ergo sum” you get a far more interesting phrase.

When speaking to someone (preferable someone who is an easy victim) throw in a nonsense word or phrase and use the word in all confidence and seriousness repeatedly in the conversation, making sure to always use it in the same context. You’ll be suprised how quickly that person picks up that and starts using that word. (if you lucky the word becomes widespread and you’ll have created new slang)

In a 1631 edition of the King James Bible, in Exodus 20 verse 14, the word “not” was left out. This changed the 7th commandment to read, “Thou shalt commit adultery.” Most of the copies were recalled immediately and destroyed on the orders of Charles I. But there are 11 copies still remaining. They are known as the “Wicked Bible.” (The Bible museum in Branson, Missouri has one on display.)
