is there a term for words such as inflammable?
Words that mean the exact opposite of how they sound.
Extralegal: not legal
Inflammable: able to be set a flame.
Do you have any other suggestions?
DirigibleProtein, Don’t “inflammable” and “flammable” mean the same thing?
Aussiemandeus, 
Yeah, but Inflammable sounds like it isn’t flammable
otp, Not sure, but another example is “irregardless”
jak, Shelled and unshelled mean the same thing, same with pitted and unpitted
