Antu had borrowed a Dictionary from her English Teacher and was browsing through it.
Antu: "Does the Dictionary have all the words, Amma?"
Me: "Most of them, da".
She started flipping a few pages and settled on a page and started reading aloud.
"Dictionary: A dictionary is a book where you can find what words mean and how to spell them." And then with a big smile, she continued "You are reading a dictionary now."
Me: "Oh my God, thats so meta!"
Antu: "Whats meta, Amma?"
Me: "What you just did! Reading a dictionary to find out what a dictionary means!"
Antu: "flips the dictionary pages to letter M"
But the children's dictionary did not have the word "Meta" in it. Whoa! Is nt that kind of meta too? *shudders*
