Disclaimer: I know no Latin, and am asking from a position of ignorance; please feel free to correct any assumptions you spot!] When we say the rhyme, we each have a sequencing card. When the rhyme gets to the portion containing our card, we wave our cards in the air. The missing part of the sentence is ambiguous. Put it on the stove? Put it "on the boil" (another idiom)? Turn the power on? Each of these, I imagine, would be translated differently, and I suspect the meaning has drifted through the three over time.

But in England at least, "I'll put the kettle on" translates to "Unless you decline, I commit to making us some warm beverages, and to spending at least enough time with you for us to finish the drinks. There may be Hobnobs, and dunking is encouraged." It is both a warm welcome and an invitation to stay awhile. A passive-affectionate version of "come on in, grab a cold one". Put The Kettle On began her next campaign in the Shloer Chase over two miles on soft ground at Cheltenham on 15 November in which she was ridden by Coleman and started the 7/4 second favourite behind the multiple Grade 1 winner Defi du Seuil in a four-runner field. She was in contention throughout the race, recovered a mistake at the third last, and overtook the front-running Duc Des Genievres in the closing stages to win by one and a quarter lengths. [16] After the race Coleman said "She has got a massive heart as she hated the ground. She was never happy the whole way. It was a testament to her ability and her attitude as it was a hard race for her. Since November last year, she has only run once, so she might be a touch rusty. When I got on top, I won well". [17] In the Grade 1 Paddy's Reward Club Chase at Leopardstown Racecourse on 27 December the mare was ridden by Sean Flanagan and finished third behind Chacun Pour Soi and Notebook, beaten more than eight lengths by the winner. The phrase "put the kettle on" is an English Idiom, celebrated in verse (eg "Polly put the kettle on...") for at least a couple of hundred years. It carries a HUGE weight of subtext in some areas of England, which I only really appreciated after moving to Texas, where it's taken literally. A great song to help develop numeracy and counting skills is the Little Piggy nursery rhyme. Children can sit together in circle time and use their fingers to count the amount of piggies that disappear! It is a good rhyme for promoting fine motor skills and using controlled finger movements. Why are nursery rhymes called nursery rhymes? Wood, Greg (17 March 2021). " 'Mad' mare Put The Kettle On proves a champion at Cheltenham Festival". The Guardian.I’m not sure if it’s the repetition of this rhyme, or that it’s just plain fun to say, but both of my little girls squealed in delight when I told them that we were learning Polly Put the Kettle On this week!

We also plan to explore new and interesting cafes and bakeries around Birmingham and carry out various excursions regularly and carry out other interesting events like Paint-A-Pot, Cat Cafe Visits, Afternoon teaor other charity fundraisers. My sister recently pondered what our family motto would be, if we had one. I suggested "I'll put the kettle on." (We know the Morgan family has several mottoes commonly ascribed to it, but I'm ignoring that for the sake of this question!) The metal used for our signs is aluminium, to last and not to rust, so suitable for indoor, bathrooms, kitchens or outdoors. Nursery rhymes are so popular and well-loved across many settings, so using them as part of your learning makes perfect sense. They are a great support to literacy development and help children develop key sounds. Take a look at some of our other brilliant resources that can help to aid children. Here, auto-translation won't help. This is something that I think only people steeped in Latin culture would know.The similar-appearing phrase "I'll boil the kettle" means "I will make some boiled water", with no implied promise to take that task any further. Family mottoes often use dog Latin, so I could easily just go with something like "Lebetem coques" (schoolboy smirk) or "Semper ferventi ab ollae" or "poppus kettleus onnus" and call it done. But now I've started digging, I can't help but wonder how the same greeting would have been given in Latin... or would be given today, in those communities which still use it.
