ReFined Vocabulary & Just Rick.
Two work stories:
The LRC is located within an UMEED training facility, so everyday I get to interrupt classes and guest lecture. Interacting with the kids has been my favorite part of being in India. I’ve instituted an English only rule in the LRC and during class. So, the students enforced a Gujarati only rule for me. It is educational for both of us (My Gujarati is improving, I promise). I’ve also convinced them to drop the “Sir” from “Rick Sir”. I’m finally Just Rick again.
Recently, I noticed that when I asked the students how they were doing, they all responded with the same one-word answer: FINE. To expand their English vocabulary, we’ve implemented the Rozario rule. When Natassia (Rozario) was growing up, her parents forbade her to use one four-letter word NICE. She was forced to substitute NICE with more meaningful words leaving her with a robust vocabulary (ask any of the fellows). So with the Rozario rule in place at UMEED, students are no longer allowed to say FINE. Now, I know that the students are cool, happy, tired, bored, very cool, handsome, trying to get to America, sleepy, and even refined.
