The nearest I can figure is the way they pronounce the v in leviosa as
more of an f sound instead of a v. 

Another reason could be that he used Wizard Buaruffio as an example of
how missing on letter in a spell can cause bad results. We can
probably assume that the spell Flitwick is referring to is not
necessarily Wingardium Leviosa but another spell in which the f was
replaced with an s and he ended up with a buffalo.
