Yep. Just like all of antiquity.

Take "apron", for example. This word is actually a mistake. The original 
words was "napron". But when some dumbarse heard the phrase "a napron", 
this misinterpreted it as "an apron". This stupid mistake has now stuck, 
and I defy you to find a dictionary today which even lists "napron" as a 
word.

Seriously, how do you *think* new languages are invented? They happen 
because of people being stupid.

Related: You can probably find "teh" in the dictionary. Along with 
"pron" and so forth.
