Correct Names Twitter coins new names for everyday objects

Most animals and everyday objects have names that we've been using for so long that we don't give them a second thought. 

The rectangular objects houses are built with? Those are bricks. The black-and-white striped animals in the jungle? Those are zebras. And a person who cures sick animals? That's a veterinarian.

One Twitter account, though, is rethinking the names we use for these things, replacing them with new names that actually make a lot of sense.

Correct Names< /span>, which is run by Manchester resident Manchester Mark Dempsey, shares new words and names for things that are more descriptive or just exceptionally punny.

Because, when you think about it, shouldn't a jet ski really be called a boatercycle?
