misworded
Said it wrong
Misworded means poorly or incorrectly phrased.
A misworded sentence fails to convey its intended meaning clearly: The misworded email caused confusion among the staff.
Unlike misspoken, which suggests an error in speech, misworded typically applies to written text where word choice or phrasing has gone wrong.
