Cute Quote: What language was that?

Yisrael:    Mommy, we speak English in Cheder!
Mommy:  Really???
Yisrael:    Yes! Every morning, when Rebbi Shea comes into my kitah, he says "Good Morning Tired Yingelech!" and then we say to him, "Good Morning Tired Rebbi!"
Mommy:  Oh, Yisrael sweety, that's not English, its Yiddish! Your Rebbi is saying "גוט מארגן טייערע ינגלעך"....

That is simply adorable- such a cute mistake! One point to ponder, though, is why he thought it makes sense for the Rebbi to be calling them tired yingelach every day?!
