And “actually”.
****************************
A story about the use of “actually”:
When our grandson was around 3 years old, we had torn down and were rebuilding our deck. He wanted to help (smile), so I set up a a piece of wood with some pre-drilled holes, gave him a few screws, and “guided” him with using what I referred to as “the screwdriver.” As he tilted his head upward and his eyes began darting in thought, he replied to me, “Ashually, Granny, that’s a drill.”😃
I am very late to but have finally almost caught up on readINg the new thread posts! Thank you, dear ransomnote❣️
Re Acctually:
My grandson did it too. We heard “actually” many times a day.
I think it’s a sign of intelligence. They’ve found a way to be heard without rudely contradicting us. It also shows they value preciseness.
Our precious boy is ten now. We’ve seen him very little in the last year.
Enjoy your sweet boy and teach him well.
