Chomping at the bit is correctly said champing at the bit though chomping seems more logical

YES. Then I thought maybe champing was originally pronounced as chomping... but that search went nowhere. I like using "champing" because it may cause my opponent in a debate, for example, to think I know how to talk English real good and stuff 😁

@rinkydinkydoink 'Champing' and 'chomping' are variations of the same word with a long history of interchangeability . 'Champing' is the standard version in the expression under discussion.
