Hi @funshee,

Thanks for sharing @funshee.

You are the best at keeping up with Yellow Bird. I like talking to you because I learn new words. I am just learning that "hammatan" is the season when the dust blows over western africa. I didn't know that before I spoke with you. I guess hammatan season is now. It would be a good idea to close the windows especially at night.

Especially thank you for introducing us to your friend @ozohu. She seems to deserve merit as a hardworking person. I will have to visit her blog. Something funny happens around me every day. Maybe because there are so many kids around. They are really funny. Also because I am teaching English to speakers of Korean everyday the language becomes something very funny. I say one thing but to them it means a completely other thing.

I work with another Korean teacher and I was impressed by how she handled a situation. I told her,

"Good job."

She looked kind of embarrassed. I thought maybe she didn't like compliments.

After class in the hallway she asked me,

Why in the world did you call me 'good dog' in front of the students. I am not a dog.

Misunderstandings...

Instead of killing each other for them we need to laugh and learn.
