He does this on purpose. Not every word has a pun behind it, but I'm 
convinced he does it to see if we will work out the joke. He intends us to 
have fun with the language.

Take the word {Sa'Hut}, for instance. Spelt backwards (*{tuH'aS}), it is 
from the Jewish/Yiddish slang word "tuckus". But very few people would work 
that out. The word {chang'eng} "pair" is the same, but see if you can work 
out the source of that one on your own.
