The girls are learning French at school.
Somebody mentioned that something was cold, so we all said 'froid' and then discussed how weird the spelling is.
Me: It sounds like it should be spelled FWA, right? But it's f-r-o-i-d.
All: That's weird!
E: Yeah, that's like the number ten! You say it like "DEES" but the way it's spelled, it's like you should be saying "DICKS! D-i-x. DICKS! It's so weird! It has an X on the end, so it should be DICKS!"
She was so proud of this revelation, we didn't have the heart to shut 'er down. But after she said DICKS! for the 6th or 7th time, we had to change the subject.
