    Hahaha! Yeah exactly! And same for all the delicious varieties of 豆腐. Mostly she just gets crazy trying to remember all the Italian names, since we are in France. It’s a fair point. It’s just funny slagging her about it :)

      Maybe you could just use the names I tell my daughter: les pâtes tournantes, les pâtes longues, les pâtes papillons… Kidding aside, I totally understand how having all these names taken from yet a different language than the one you’re actively trying to learn could be a handful.
