Kinder

As in the German word for children. I often say to my students, "Vite, vite kinder!" when I want them to hurry. It means "quick, quick children!" Only, vite is French!

Such a funny little word! Makes me think of Grease. Why? Look it up!

Words that start with O look funny. Things that we consider ordinary often turn out to be quite amazing, in fact.

Not one of my favorites, but it's a good one and I used it the other day so I thought I better include it.
