Shit if I think I got my point across I’m pretty happy
Actually really I think more often we think “I SHOULD have said that!”. It’s like we know so so many words until a native comes to talk to us and then all our words go hiding somewhere.

Just so you know, it’s a play on words. Not only does it mean “I said the wrong thing” but literally “I should not have said the word that”.
Should have said 'this."

Arbitrary usage of “in” versus “on” in various expressions.
You tried to talk about cats in spanish, didn’t you
