Meaning of a T-shirt sentence
|
|
One of my students just called me to ask what the words on her new T-shirt mean: "MY PARENTS PUT MY DRUMS UNDER LOCK ON THE KEYFOR TODAY"
I told her that keyfor were actually 2 words (key for) and the overall meaning would be that the poor parents were tired of hearing the drums and locked them away. Any other suggestions? |

Hi Anna
We usually say �under lock and key � for the definition you wrote.
Cheers

English mistakes are common on T-shirts, esp. when made and sold in countries where English is not widely spoken. For some hilarious examples, click here. |
