A way with words (part 2)

I was wondering if you blog readers could help me out! I was trying to find out the term we use when we change a word to fit a certain phrase or context. For example, I was reading a blog yesterday (unfortunately, I can´t remember the name) and it was written "shift happens" (which totally made sense in the text). How do we call that?

A way with words

After blogging all day long yesterday, I felt compelled to write a post about words. I have always admired the American way with words and the fun aspect of it, which is something I don´t usually see in my native language, portuguese. An example is the film Bruce Almighty (2003), in which a beggar holds up a sign with interesting messages. Their creativity comes to a point that I often wonder, what will come next? And I often can´t wait.
