Oh, don’t do that, he;ll think that your mother is one of the nuns.
“It doesn’t mean dad...”
Dad means father. Father means father. What part of that do you not understand?
“Next time I see a priest I’ll call him dad...”
Go ahead.
“Then I’ll tell him you said dad and father are the same thing...”
And he’ll agree with me. They mean EXACTLY the same thing. Only one is used to refer to priests in English. But go ahead and appear ignorant.
