Studying grammar

Reading my grammar book is a source of great entertainment. My ammA was amused that I roll in laughter reading my grammar book.

ammA - padI nnu sonna, sirichindrukka? (Why are you laughing when I have asked you to read?)

pAdukA - silly slliy-a potturukku. (This book has silly things)

ammA (going through the book) - inda lesson edha patthi? (What is this lesson about?)

pAdukA (no listening to ammA, lost in her own world keeps giggling)

ammA - past tense pAdukA !

pAdukA - so silly ! 

ammA - ennadhu silly pAdukA ? (what is silly?)

pAdukA - Snoopy nnu oru nAi patthi :) (It is about a dog called Snoopy). He licked Raju's face. (giggles). He chewed grandfather's slippers (more giggling) He opened the door for father (rolls in laughter)

ammA - ennathukku serikara (why are you laughing?)

pAdukA - eppadi oru naai rendu kaal-la ninnnu kadava tharakkum? Picture paar. (How can a dog stand on two legs and open the door? See the picture)

pAdukA - namba kooda oru naai vangi idhumaadhari tricks sollikudukanam. adhu dhaan appa office lerndhu varache kadavu tharakkum (We should also buy a dog and teach tricks. He will open the door for appA when he comes from office.)

ammA - !!! When will she learn grammar? !!
