First grade: 14; second grade: 15; third grade: 16. <br /><br />And all they mean by "buy girls" is that if you are rich, then you can get a lot of girlfriends. But when they realize what they've managed to say in English, it clicks.... they don't mean that. Most of the time. Although they're no little blushing flowers. Today, when I told them I would show a short video to start class, there were several cries of, "Teacher ERO?!"

Nearly 16....
And yea...They're 15 Korean age! Nearly 16.... <br /><br />And yeah, they are too young to make the mother connection, but they knew full well what they had written with the "sleeping you together" thing. They just tried to cover it over with the mother thing. Wrong direction. <br /><br />I've also had students try to tell me that if they have a lot of money, then girls will like them by managing to come out with "buy girls!" Once they see my face in response, they get really embarrassed.I'm no Picassohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06516337555349888808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21444271.post-40245361428704131822010-10-27T19:06:33.486+09:002010-10-27T19:06:33.486+09:00"Either way, the sleeping together/mother par..."Either way, the sleeping together/mother part was the real crux of the issue, if you ask me."<br /><br />I interpreted that rather innocently.

And Misuk said, "I'm your mother. What are you saying to me?" And the boy said, "Oh sorry. I thought you were a monster." You know they mix up look/see because of 보다. As in, I said that only because I saw like [you looked like] a monster. But you know. Who knows. Either way, the sleeping together/mother part was the real crux of the issue, if you ask me.I'm no Picassohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06516337555349888808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21444271.post-66447478755253942622010-10-27T16:57:54.138+09:002010-10-27T16:57:54.138+09:00Disturbing.

The boy said, Oh sorry I looked like a monster."<br /><br />This reminds me of that South Park episode when the boys have seen too much crazy shit on TV and are telling disturbing stories.Afghanistan Banana Standhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17655359997210659064noreply@blogger.com
