If the second person saying it wrong, and the third, and fourth!

I hardly can tell who's my father is!

"A synagogue roll [remember that they did not have paper as we do today] must be written on the skins of clean animals, the length of each column must not extend less than 48 or more than 80 lines; the breadth must consist of 30 letters. No word or letter, not even a yod, must be written from memory... Between every consonant the space of a hair or thread must intervene, between every book three lines. Besides this the copyist must sit in full Jewish dress, and wash his whole body" (Hebrew Text of the Old Testament, Davidson).

Donald Clarke wrote, “In making copies of Hebrew manuscripts which are the precious heritage of the Church today, the Jewish scribes exercised the greatest care . . . counting, not only the words, but every letter, noting how many times each particular letter occurred, and destroying at once the sheet on which a mistake was detected, in their anxiety to avoid the introduction of the least error in the sacred Scriptures, which they prized so highly and held in such awe. Moreover, each new copy had to be made from an approved manuscript, written with a special kind of ink, upon sheets made from the skin of a ‘clean’ animal. The writers also had to pronounce each word before writing it, and on no account was a single word to be written from memory. They were to reverently wipe their pen before writing the name of God in any form and to wash their whole body before writing ‘Jehovah,’ lest that holy name be tainted in the writing. The new copy was carefully examined with the original almost immediately; and it is said that if only one incorrect letter was discovered the whole copy was rejected.”

You must have played that kid's game...in my grade school, we called it "gossip". LOL, it was lots of fun, whispering to one another, and seeing how distorted the original message came out after it had been whispered in a dozen different ears....
However, you are reckoning without the power of God.
(Oh, and...don't go around telling people that you don't know who your father is. It doesn't make your Mom look too good...)
