For example, switching out the word ‘boot’ for ‘trunk’, or ditching the word ‘rubbish’ for ‘garbage’.
This is something I’ve noticed my 6 year old does pretty regularly. We went through a stage where ‘sweets’ became ‘candy’, ‘holiday’ became ‘vacation’ and ‘courgette’ became ‘zucchini’.
That last one didn’t happen but if you’re still reading you’ve got my respect, or as the Americans might say ‘…mad props’.
What’s the context of trunk there? Tree trunk? Car trunk?
Car trunk
What’s a tree boot?
Makes as little sense to me as a car boot, but tree boot existing wouldn’t surprise me given how little sense english makes anyway
Yeah car boot, it’s the place where the bodies go.
It’s also an alternative name for a wheel clamp.
