So last week my DD and DH were sitting at the kitchen table working on her homework, she was reading.......the English language can be quite difficult when you try to teach a child the ins and outs of the words and their sounds.
I'm in the office on the computer and I hear her say "a-a-a-a-a I can't say that word", DH says "yes you can, sound it out a-a-a-a-a".
She says "Daddy I can't say that word", DH asks "why not, just sound it out, say the word".
I begin to snicker because the sentence is making sense to me and I say "Guys the "S" sounds like a "Z" for that word"
DD says "a-a-a-a-a-a-"s""s"s" {in a z sound} and she yells AS, the word is is AS
Yes the word is AS not ASS, ASS has 2 "s's".......
Daddy begins to laugh, he just got it!
