ELL dictionary entry - actually a few

chicken (n.) - a place where you play with dishes, cook, serve food.

Used in context: Daddy, we can't play in the 'chicken' because mommy put our food away.

It's really kitchen, but Kidist keeps calling it a chicken!! Go figure!!


walking street (n.) - a place where you walk between a persons yard and parkway!

Used in context: Mommy, can we go play over there on the walking street?

It's really a sidewalk. The girls wanted to go and play with the neighbor girls and I told them they couldn't play in the street, then Kidist says, we can play on the 'walking street'.

There is one more but we can't remember the word. So when I am awakened at 3:00 am some morning remembering, I'll come and post it.
