[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP, say "kinder" with a short i as in "kindergarten."  That is what this rude OP is referring to. He/she is attempting to malign people that can be identified through an anonymous forum.[/quote]

Who says kinder to refer to kindergarten. Unless you are Northern European it sounds affected. [/quote]

I work in an elementary school. We sometimes refer to that grade as "kinder" (with a short i) when we're talking to one another in shorthand.[/quote]

[b]sounds stupid[/b]. [/quote]

Thanks for sharing. Now go back to your Xbox and doing your homework. There's an algebra test on Monday.[/quote]

I wish I could just go play video games!  I'm busy getting my "kinder" kid ready for ballet.  And judging others for using stupid phrases.  [/quote]

Actually you wouldn't say "kinder kid." You're not in a school setting. And it's not an adjective. It's shorthand for kindergarten. If someone asked, "What grade is Larla in?"a teacher might respond quickly and say, "She's in kinder."  Or someone in the school office might say, "It looks like kinder is just getting back from their field trip." [/quote]

I guess I could never work in a school then - that would drive me bananas!  [/quote]
