Sadarji : English Language Class

The names have changed but this story is true.


One day, a group of Sadarjis were attending their English Language Class. The teacher asked one of the Sadarjis a question.

"What is the meaning of : to turn over a new leaf?"

He consults his friend to his left and whispers, "Dey, is the meaning : to change our attitudes".

One of his friends whipers back, "Sort of . . ."

He wants more confirmation. So he askes more of his friends. The others agreed with the one on his left friend and tells him, "Yes. Sort of."

Feeling confident now, he proudly tells the teacher, "I know the meaning!"

"So what does 'to turn over a new leaf' mean?" The teacher repeats the question.














"It means : sort of."
