Share some nonsense rhymes and sayings from your childhood. It is interesting how these often transcend cultures and languages.
I'll post a few in the discussion but lets get started with something that works best said out loud:
1 1 was a racehorse (Wan-wan was a racehorse)
2 2 was 1 2 (Tutu was one too)
1 1 1 1 race (Wan-wan won one race)
2 2 1 1 2 (Tutu won one too.)
Another one frm my childhood is "Antigonish", an 1899 poem by American educator and William Hughes Mearns. It is also known as "The Little Man Who Wasn't There"
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there!
He wasn't there again today,
Oh how I wish he'd go away!
When I came home last night at three,
The man was waiting there for me
But when I looked around the hall,
I couldn't see him there at all!
Go away, go away, don't you come back any more!
Go away, go away, and please don't slam the door...
Last night I saw upon the stair,
A little man who wasn't there,
He wasn't there again today
Oh, how I wish he'd go away...
And I'll never forget "One Bright Morning In The Middle Of The Night"
One bright morning in the middle of the night
two dead boys got up to fight
Back to back they faced each other
Drew their swords and shot each other
A deaf policeman heard the noise
and ran to save the two dead boys
If you don't believe this lie is true
ask the blind man, he saw it, too.

The Incorrect version is- (day and ran to save the two dead boys)
The correct version is- (and came and killed those two dead boys)
