It's Onomatopoeia Time, Onomatopoea!

Me: This is the gold medal that I won.

Student: This is the gold medal that I...

Teacher: Won*.

Student: ...that I...

Teacher: Won...Won. Won**.

Everyone (except teacher): Ha ha ha ha ha.


*Won sounds like "wan", which is the Japanese equalivalant to "woof", so the students were laughing because she sounded like she was barking.

**At this point she was irritated, so the tone of her voice made it even more like a dog's bark.
