No kidding, we should have all teens checked for earing problems right now, 'cause I think they're all going deaf!!! I just spent 5 minutes repeating a word to one of them: "from" is "de" (in french)
she looks at me: "D E?"
My reply: "yes. D E."
her, looking Dissapointed :" D E!!??"
my, also dissapointed "D E!!!"
her, going back to her original puzzled face: "D E??"
me, thinking about getting a megaphone:" Yeah!!! D E!!!!"
her, apparently not convinced "D E!!??"
me, through the deafning sound of blood pumping in my ear: "Yes, that how you say "from" in french... D E !!!!"
her, Slowly walking back to her place, mumbling: " D E ???"
me, frantically searching for something sharp to operate myself with: "AAAAAHHHHHHGGGGGGG"
I dunno if she's just deaf or dumb, or the concept of words not being written the same from one language to another is too much for the hamster in her head, but she is slowly driving me nuts. and that's just one of many examples....
ahhh crap. Here she comes again....
I gotta hide
maybe if I pretend I'm dead....
