- A character suddenly realizes that the spelling of a particular word has changed permanently; he knows that he's spelling it correctly, but everybody else spells it differently. The dictionaries confirm the new spelling of the word, but he's seen it spelled that way for his entire life.

- A word simply disappears from the world. "Smooth" doesn't appear in any of the dictionaries, nor do people describe things as rough - they simply describe it as "not rough"
