from the English Diaries, volume 1

My students keep English diaries and write in them for every class. I give them a topic, usually based on the story we read that day and they give me three to five sentences.
I often encounter unintentional linguistic gems that I simply must share.

In Janet's class, we read a story about Shakespeare. Her diary topic was something like: what Shakespeare plays do you know?

Her response:

Mack Bass
Osarro

(wait for it)

King of Rears
