I just had an invasion of small Arabic-speaking children- the 2 from downstairs. They just came on in, and started playing with the computer: luckily they didn't get to anything vital. They're adorable, and I'm fairly sure that they were trying to explain things so I'd understand, but I was only getting the occasional question word or very very basic vocab. It was a slightly anxious experience- they didn't really listen to me, probably since the only word I could use was "laa". But they were adorable, and it was sort of fun anxiety for a bit. And then their mother came to get them, and I was relieved, although they seemed pretty unhappy with being routed from here. Ahh, adventures.

Hose? (garden or stockings?) Or House?

They look like they're in the 3-4 range, although they're remarkably articulate, as far as I can tell without really knowing the language.

Er . . . what? Where did that come from, and what does it mean?

Ahh- I read "nose" as "hose" and was quite, quite confused.
