Ch-ch-ch-tremendous!

Evangelina's tongue twister from the car ride yesterday:
"Chinese champion chimpanzees choose to charming chipmunks to try some triple cheese chicken chimichangas"

(I was especially tickled at her discovery that the alliterative sounds inherent to tongue twisters do not necessarily have to use the same letters, eg: there's a "ch" sound in the words "try" and "triple"!)

Just how old do you think we are?

12-year-old E and I were talking about languages in the car this afternoon when I was telling her about a funny time in my childhood when my sister Ruthie and I translated some lines from a new Batman movie (which were totally cut-and-dried in English) into Taiwanese, which somehow made the lines supremely hilarious to us:

—
Small-time villain, suddenly subdued by Batman in the shadows of the night: Who are you?
Batman: I'm Batman.
—

E had my phone with her in the back seat, so she looked up the scene on YouTube, which I heard but could not see while I was driving.

Not totally sure myself, I asked, "Is that from the Batman movie from the 1990's?"

E answered, "I don't think so… it was in color."
