Animal Grammar

Unfortunately, I don’t have the drawings to go along with this, but picture if you will a “Frank and Ernest” cartoon by Thaves:

1. Beave.       Beaver.       Beavest.
2. Woodchuck.       Couldchuck.       Shouldchuck.
3. Bad-ger.       Worse-ger.       Worst-ger.
4. Lem.       Lemming.       Lemmed.
5. Flamingo.       Flamingoing.       Flamingone.
6. Ibis.       Ib-was.       Ib-will-be.
7. Ostrich.       Ostpoor.       Ost-middle class.
8. Pelican.       Pelican’t.       Peliwon’t.
9. Buffalo.       Buffa-lower.       Buffa-lowest.
10. Coatimondi.       Coati-Friday.       Coatimondi.

Hmmm. I guess it really doesn’t make all that much sense without the pictures?
