One of my kids, I'll call them Cloyce just to give them a name, came home from kindergarten one day all excited about a severe. The teacher had demonstrated severes in class.
I didn't understand what Cloyce was talking about; it had been a long time since I was in kindergarten. I asked for an explanation.
"You know, a severe."
"I can't picture it, Cloyce, sorry."
Cloyce ran and grabbed a small globe of the Earth from the bedroom. "Something round like this. A severe."
Ah, a sphere. Cloyce either wasn't enunciating quite right, or my hearing wasn't picking it up.
