Huge As

So when I first got here the accent is a little tricky to understand all the time.  I had to say "What?" a lot.  And like I said they do have a little bit different lingo.  One thing that I thought was quite interesting is that it is common to add the word "as" on the end of all descriptive words.  So I will hear quite frequently "awesome as" or "huge as"  or "scary as"  and so on. 

So before I knew this was a thing that people do often, this cute little six year old boy, Alex, was telling me a story about his sister catching a "huge as" fish.  I was a little taken aback at first because with the accent and the unfamiliar phrase, I thought this six year old boy was saying "huge a**"  I thought this for a while, and the kid kept saying "as" after everything, so I mentioned something to Cory and he informed me that it was a frequently used phrase to add the word "as" on the end of lots of words.  We both couldn't stop laughing! 

Here is Alex, the sweet little potty mouth(or so I thought)!  Dropping the A-bomb all the time!  Haha!
