When she was about eight, my sister came into the living room one day and asked my mom "What's a skeregin' word?" Mom was bewildered and asked her what she meant. My sister sang "You know- Where seldom is heard a skeregin word, and the skies are not cloudy all day." It was "Home on the Range" The word was "Discouraging" LOLOL
