Winston (aged 7):
Sir, but, what does it mean? Prep School Headmaster:
I have told you. "Mensa" in Latin means "a table." Winston (aged 7):
But, it means "o table," too, sir. And what does "o table" mean? Prep School Headmaster:
"Mensa" - "o table" - is the vocative case. "O Table." You would use that in addressing the table, in invoking a table. You would use it in speaking to a table. Winston (aged 7):
But, I never do sir? Prep School Headmaster:
Churchill, in this school, if you are impertinent you will be punished and be punished, let me tell you, very severely
