a fourth grader's word of the day

my nephew was asking for help on his english homework. he had to write a dialogue using intransitive verbs. here is part of his homework:

NICO: She writes fluently in English.

then, my nephew asked me what "fluently" meant. we checked the dictionary and came up with "effortlessly." my brother then made a suggestion:

KYLE: if you like my aunt's writing, then you should see my uncle. he dances fluently in spanish.

when my nephew was picked up by my aunt, she asked him "did you get your homework done?"
he replied, "fluently."

Song of the Day: Effortlessly (by Sister Hazel)

It shouldn't be so hard just to be effortlessly

Weightless worries fall away

Wasted pools of energy
