car
Listen, if I accidentally said ‘tar’ when I meant ‘car’ it wouldn’t sound right would it? I’d have to fix it up and say ‘car’. Did you hear that? First I said ‘tar’, then I fixed it up and said ‘car’.

key
Listen. If I said ‘tea’ it wouldn’t sound right. I would have to fix it up and say ‘key’.

cap
If I said ‘tap’ instead of ‘cap’ I would have to do a fixed-up-one again. I would have to think to myself, ‘It’s not tap, it’s cap’. Did you hear that fixed-up-one?
