1LOL! I’ve had plenty of communication misunderstandings where a transcript of the conversation would have solved everything!
This once happened with my son, when he was in grade school. His Torah teacher asked him to translate a sentence from the Hebrew into English. He got stuck on a certain word, which he though was a goat.
The teacher told him to look it up in the dictionary, and moved on to another child to translate the next sentence.
My son found the word and raised his hand. The teacher asked, “Did you find the word?” Reading (innocently, unaware) from his dictionary, he read, “ewe, bitch.”
The teacher told us about it at a conference a month later! My son didn’t know what effect it had on her at all!
All the best,
(Happy Blog Treatment Day!)
