A Joke

This happened at a lesson in a village school. All the children were from farmers' families. The teacher was very young. “Now let me explain a new grammar rule,” she said to her class.

”A noun,” she went on, “is the name of a thing, a person or an animal. Do you understand?”
“Yes, Miss!” all the children answered.
“Then which of you can give me an example of a noun?”
“I can!” a little girl said.
“Well, what's your example?”
“Cow!” the little girl answered.
“Good!” the teacher said. “And can you give another example?”
“Of course,” was the answer. “Another cow.”
