Salvation
Last week marked the end of the school year in Japan. And in class, the Japanese teacher I work with announced that it was the last English lesson.
There were the usual (and predictable) responses, except for one young fella. Who with perfect timing and intonation, raised his hands aloft and cried.
“Salvation!â€
Sadly, just like at the cinema, I was the only one laughing. Even the boy who produced the gem wasn’t aware of his unique comic talent.
Where on earth he learnt the word I don’t know, but I’m glad he did.
