Consparancy and Transpiracy

 

A slip-of-the-tongue by a lecturer a few days ago: "transpiracy" (she pronounced it "trans-PEER-a-see"). What might it mean? A transparent conspiracy, perhaps one in which the plotters are incompetently obvious? And how about the converse, "consparancy"? Hmmm, that sounds like complete sharing of information within a secret society.
