1. We have a room at my school dedicated to literature and it's called the Shakespeare Room. My language conversation partner came into my office the other day and hurriedly inquired of me and the other native teacher how to pronounce Shakespeare. But she says...
Sexspeare.Her students were making fun of her pronunciation so we worked on the "sh" sound. There's still some work to be done, but I think she's doing better now.
2. We also have a Pythagoras room, which is (as you may have guessed) for math. However, Koreans usually say...
Pissagorass.Which is just hilarious!
Now for some of my most recent photos :-)

| Hurry and get your Honey Maximowiczia tea! I saw this at the store and was confused by the long title, so I looked it up. Apparently, Maximowiczia is the scientific name for the Chinese five-flavor berry, which is so named because its berries are salty, sweet, sour, spicy and bitter -- all at once. You never know what you'll learn when grocery shopping! |
