My 7-year-old grand-daughter (Oh, yes, this is a boast post) seems to have a turn for multilingual puns. When her father worked for long periods in the basement, she said, "Why call him Appa? We should call him Downpa!". To her younger brother's constantly saying "No", her respsonse was, "We should call him Noah." When they returned from Home Depot and saw me, she quipped, "That's Home Deepa." Right now, I am teaching her Hindi, preparing her for her schooling in India; when she wrote the alphabets, य र ल व , she added this English phrase underneath.




"Your a lover!" How's that for a trans-lingual pun!
