Funny (I'm sorry, but I do find it funny....in an odd sort of way). I'm sure that he's not the only kid to ask that question!
How would he know? We're not exactly agrarian.
So what did you tell him?
me<><
What do you mean, what'd I tell him? I told him it came from wheat, naturally.
He said, "Oh, yeah!" and returned to the game.
And Cheri, I thought it was funny, too.
At the marriage enrichment seminar:
Speaker: "Men, you should know all about your wife. You should know what her favorite flower is!"
Man, aside to wife: "It's Pillsbury, isn't it, dear?"
*Whack*
But look at it this way: since English is his second language, he's getting the grammar right -- better than the way most of us speak informally, I daresay! (Assuming you quoted him literally, that is.)
He has a surprisingly decent grasp of grammar, in fact. I've often noticed it. Not perfect, mind, but still....he makes relatively few mistakes.
