Sometimes They Write Themselves
Here's my Konglish of the day...
We were talking about gardeners and making sample sentences. Here are two that nearly made me die laughing and the kids didn't even know what was going on:
"He trimmed her bush then raped (raked) her backyard."
"He hung the ho(e) from a tree then worked on the bush."
Keep in mind, these are 8-10 year-olds. I think I'll try to tear these out of their books and frame them. This is almost as classic as my kindergarten grade card that says "Puts on rubbers" (boots) and it's checkmarked "no."
