Smurf Smurfing here.
When you smurf a particular word as a different part of smurf than it should be used as. Pretty smurfin' simple, right?
The Ur-Example is, of course, The Smurfs, who smurfed it to ridiculous extremes, and fused it with Species Surname, making some smurfs contain the word upwards of thirty smurf. It is also the Smurf Smurfer.
This is a smurfy-common way of dealing with smurf words. Why worry about using a word that could potentially smurf the minds of a young audience when you can just have the smurfs use an entirely innocuous smurf instead? Most writers don't seem to smurf that this makes the word less smurfless, and this aspect of the idea is the most frequently smurfed. Smurfin' A.
Usually, enough of the original sentence will be left to be understood, as in the classic "This gubblick contains many nonsklarkish English flutzpahs, but the overall pluggandisp can be glorked from context"
Related to Unusual Smurfing Euphemism, Planet of Smurfs, Pokesmurf Speak, Smurfbal Tic, El Smurfish-o, Smurf is, Like, A Comma and (sometimes) Insmurfingly Funny Words. And for extreme circumstances, Censored for Comedy. See also Freudian Smurf.
Not to be smurfed for "Smurfing", a practice on ranked online games where an experienced player makes a new account to dominate lowbies, to get back in practice or by using another players account to get around a ban or to play for a team they aren't registered for. Or any other type of "smurfing", for that smurf.

Henrietta Pussycat, of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood, replaced words with "meow". An interesting example because most smurfing involves replaces nouns, verbs and occasionally adjectives which can be easily guessed from context, but Henrietta would replace words at random, leading to very odd and often unintelligible speech patterns.

The Simpsons
The watch-dog who barks entire advertisements. "And now, a message from the Latter-day Saints..."
"We're on the Road to D'ohwhere" could be claimed for this trope. It has Homer hallucinating Bart everywhere, including a sign "Burt Bacharach" which turns into "Bart Bartabart".
In one scene in "Flaming Moe's", Homer goes crazy thinking about how Moe screwed him over, and his "Moe on the brain" spell extends to him imagining his family doing this at the breakfast table:

Nodwick has "KRUTZ!" Possibly the only smurfing word to ever have a city named after it. "Krutz" is a general, all-purpose curse word that was heavily promoted by a villain, because every time it was used, he would collect the negative energy released when someone swore.

Often found in translations of a manga or anime featuring a catgirl with the "Nya" Verbal Tic — any syllable sounding like "meow", "mew", or "myaah" gets turned into the appropriate cat noise.
Utilized amusingly in the original Japanese of Bakemonogatari. The protagonist orders a catgirl to repeat a tongue twister he recites, and her version is hopelessly-but-cutely mangled by about twenty "nya"s. The fansubs offer an interesting solution to this: The tongue twister is given as "Can you imagine an imaginary menagerie manager imagining managing an imaginary menagerie?", and her reply is "Can mew imeowgine an imeowginary meownagerie meownager imeowgining meownaging an imeowginary meownagerie?"

The Archer episode "Once Bitten" has a running gag involving the leader of Turkmenistan replacing a number of words with the name of his dog, Gerpgork. This leads to a scene where Ray and Cyril have to explain that Archer's been bitten by a "gerpgork" to some tribesmen, and get offered everything from a piece of bread to a calendar.

Nezu frequently replaces words in his speech with mouse references:
When Taiga mistakenly thinks Nezu was a girl, Nezu squeaks out "You're mousetaken! I mean, mistaken!" Later on, he says Kaen is "Mousing up his ears."
When Nezu asks the "vampire" why she's only targeting boys, he calls her out on her "Disqueakmination".
"I've been squeaking all over for you!", "I need to squeak, er, speak, with Mitsumi-san...", "How are you so squeakin' good at that?!"

Early on in The Dictator, it is stated that General Aladeen has ordered that a great number of words in the Wadiyan language be replaced with "Aladeen"…including contradictory words like "positive/negative" which causes a great deal of confusion (as shown by a doctor informing a patient that he's "HIV-Aladeen" and the latter not knowing how to react). Used as a Running Gag throughout the film (a Wadyian restaurant has an "Open/Closed" sign reading "Come in, we're Aladeen/Sorry, we're Aladeen" and in a credits scene, Aladeen himself accidentally shoots a man in the leg because the safety catch was on "Aladeen" instead of "Aladeen").

An episode of Robot Chicken included a war between the Smurfs and Snorks, caused by the Smurfs dumping raw sewage into the Snorks' water, who retaliate by stopping up the sewer. Papa Smurf's toilet overflows, prompting him to yell out "Oh, smurf me up the smurf!"
Actually parodied quite a bit; in a sketch that parodies Smurfs filtered through Avatar, Gargamel as a Smurf is learning their language and apparently failing proper grammar and inflection. In vignette of women characters discussing sex, Smurfette gets a sext about how someone wants to "smurf her smurf" and she responds how that could literally mean anything.

Interestingly, Empath in Empath: The Luckiest Smurf can't fluently speak a word in Smurf without sounding like My Hovercraft Is Full of Eels to other Smurfs. The only times he can do this is when he's extremely angry or very scared. In "Empath's Honeymoon", Empath gains the ability to speak in Smurf fluently after his first night alone with Smurfette, and all without having to be in an extreme emotional state.

The word "Frak" in Battlestar Galactica (2003) is usually just an Unusual Euphemism, but occasionally crosses over into this.

Then there's the South Park episode "Starvin Marvin in Space", where they meet the Marklars, who replace every Marklar, with Marklar.

Ugly Americans features the Bird Men, who learned to speak from a foul-mouthed tourist who brought the first pair to the States. Most of their vocabulary consists of various intonations of the phrase "Suck my balls".

An episode of Mike, Lu & Og had Mike going crazy from lack of hot-dogs and she starts seeing everyone and everything as hot-dogs. This trope is naturally applied ("We can do just hot-dog without hot-dog").

Strawberry Shortcake: Strawberry Shortcake and her friends tend to do this to form puns on the word "berry". The title of Strawberry Shortcake's Berry Bitty Adventures replaces the word "very" with "berry" as well.

When playing PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds one day, Northern Lion and his teammates latched onto the word "acquiesce" and proceeded to demonstrate that none of them had a clue what it means, using it to mean everything from "ask" to "offer". It continued to crop up from time to time after that episode.

One episode of Wander over Yonder has Wander and Sylvia tasked with delivering a box, without looking inside. Wander's curiosity about the contents of the box drives him to near insanity, and despite Sylvia's attempts to get him to leave the box alone he eventually runs up a tree with the box and yells "You can't box me, Box-ia! I'm gonna box this box and there's not a box BOX BOX BOX!"

The Tick: In "The Tick vs. The Big Nothing", Arthur and The Tick encounter two alien races, the Heys and the Whats, who of course only say "Hey" and "What", respectively. At one point, Arthur is mistaken for a Hey and interrogated by a What who can speak Hey. He manages, in spite of having no first-hand knowledge of the language:

Again, The Smurfs (1981), although the animation was toned down compared to the comics. Primarily they used the word Smurf as a positive adjective.

In Theta vs Pi 7 the theta use "theta" for every word except "pi" and the pi use "pi" for every word except "theta". So a theta saying, "Hey, did you hear about King Pi?" would be "Theta, theta theta theta theta Theta Pi?" Thankfully there are English subtitles.
