I overheard this while sitting at a table in the mall food court today.
Kid: I can’t believe I made that fox pass.
Mom: Huh?
Kid: I just feel so dumb for doing that.
Mom: What did you do?
Kid: I asked my science teacher if she was pregnant and she said no. It was a fox pass.
(At this time I started giggling.)
Mom: What does a fox have to do with anything?
Kid: You know, when you make a mistake it’s called a fox pass.
Mom: (laughing) Oh honey, it’s not pronounced “fox pass,” it’s French and pronounced “fo paw.”
Kid: Oh, no wonder Mrs. Kinder looked at me funny when I apologized for my fox pass. I won’t make that fox pass again.
One thing I know, the kid is a reader. I did the same thing with “facade” for years until someone told me it was pronounced “fussod.”
Peace, people!
