As all of you know, French-Canadians at times tend not to pronounce the letter 'H' ... for example,
'Hot Dog' is pronounced 'Ot Dog' and 'Hudson Hardware' is pronounced 'Udson Ardware'.
They also have a penchant for inserting an 'H' where there is none, by saying 'Hany' (instead of 'Any') and 'Hall' (instead of 'All').
One day in a French immersion class for 1st graders, the teacher was asking her class to describe the use of Ozonol medical ointment.
Little Mary got up and explained that she had fallen while roller skating and scratched her knee.

Little Mary got up and explained that she had fallen while roller skating and scratched her knee.
She went home and her mother cleaned the cut and put a bandage with Ozonol on her knee and it was all better.
The teacher was very proud for that answer and then asked other children if they had any other explanation of the word.
Little Pierre raised his hand and started to explain.
