My 8yo son used the word "homunculus" to describe a classmate a few weeks back and I still have no idea where tf he got it from.
He used it correctly as when I queried him that (a) he had said the word "homunculus" and (b) he knew what it meant he said, yes his friend was really small, and laughed.

My nephew was divorcing in 2006 and had at that time an 4 year old son and 8 year old daughter.
They had to come to the "youth-judge" for questioning about mum and dad and where they wanted to be.
After some time the 4-year old son said to the judge: "yes, mom has new boyfriend, and i see him doing pipi in her mouth !! ?? 4 year old !!!! ?? And he was bloody right, because that guy was me (not doing pipi ofcourse). After 17 years i still dont know how he knew ar saw. He is 23 now !!

not to derail ur thread, but why do i see so many khmer kids when i cycled before around kep, flipping the bird?

I always made it a point to stop and say NO!!
