Ziva-ism

In the world of NCIS fans, a Ziva-ism is typically an idiomatic mistake made by the character Ziva David. She is somewhat foreign and is still trying to grasp the American language. American idioms drive her up the hall as she said.

Ziva: "I would hate to be misunderstood."
Fornell: "And does that happen often?"
Ziva: "Once in a blue lagoon."

Ziva used blue lagoon instead of blue moon, so this is a Ziva-ism.
