"This - That" English
Yesterday night I and my daughter were roaming in the garden for our night dinner. For the past few days this has become a practice as to come out and eat dinner. We talk a lot during this time. Talk about Moon, Stars, sing some songs, blow bubbles etc.
I asked her about her School. She had just started going to school, to be precise this is her third week. She was in a good mood and was talking a lot. As I asked her in English, she tried to reply back in English. This is what she said.
“Vineeba, Aryan, Dheerender .. Crying …”
“ Anju downstairs, Ammamma came “
“ Anju flew away” …….
After thinking for sometime ..
“ Here … “
This is what she meant..
“Vineeba, Aryan, Dheerender .. Crying …”
In the school, vineeba, Aryan, dheerendar etc were crying.
“ Anju downstairs, Ammamma came “
As her ammamma came to pick her up, she came downstairs. (Her class is in the first floor)
“ Anju flew away” …….
Anju left the school and came back
After thinking for sometime ..
“ Here … “
To our home. :)
