Today we learnt the song The Twelve Days of Christmas. I can't imagine receiving a partridge for Christmas. What would I do with it? Maybe I would plant the pear tree and it could live there. But would it live peacefully with the French hens, the calling birds, and the turtle doves? These are the big questions of our day!
The American dialect map that I came across the other day is very interesting. Take a look sometime! It tells us about the various influences on American English in different parts of the country, such as (of course) British English on the East Coast, French in the south, German and Norwegian in some places, and Irish and Scottish influences in others.
We're going to watch the second half of Hannah and Her Sisters today. Yeah!
