Lesson at school, Mary Ivanna asks a treacherous question: “And now, my dears, since we are studying punctuation, please give an example of a sentence in which the location of the comma fundamentally determines its meaning.” Forest of hands.
– Lyudochka, you are our excellent student, I’m listening…
– Execution cannot be pardoned! Silence, Vovochka’s grin, dissatisfied Mary Ivanna:
– Vovochka, is the example naive for you?
– Well, you’re not asking me. “Count it,” she asked.
– Please. A black man enters the room, as if in a fairy tale with a happy ending.
