Last night we had some good friends come over for dinner. They were excited about trying a "southern style" American dish, Chicken Pot Pie. The food was yummy, but the conversations were even better.
We spent the evening laughing about different ways words can be pronounced.
Example: We say "Owl" like the woot woot owl.
They pronounce it "All"
Example #2: We say "village"
They pronounce it "willage"
Example #3: We say "Joe"
They pronounce it "Zo"
We also laughed about stuff like this...
When we need to leave someones house we say "Well, we gotta go. See ya later"
They say "We should make a move"
There are so many more. I just can't seem to remember them right now.
By the end of our term, we may sound like our friends from the Northeast. Or even scarier, they might sound like us! Imagining them with a southern accent makes me laugh... We'll see.
All in all, we had a super fun night laughing and enjoying each others company.
So thankful for friends and laughter!
Vow! Tanks.
