It’s like when Mom refers to the tiny keyboard on her phone as the “typewriter.”* It’s interesting to see some of the things that are actually strangely spot-on, even though he definitely doesn’t have a good fluent language for it yet.

Either way, it’s still mind-blowing to realize just how much things have changed in just 40 years, innit?


*She also uses homerow when typing on it. Transcription training does not go lightly.
