Throat
“My daughter suffers from sore throat a lot when in a car”
ALSO! I am nominated (TWICE??) at the Sequential Magazine Awards 2019! It’s a public vote, so please take two minutes of your time and vote for me in the Best Webcomic and Favourite Cartoonist categories! (I am the only woman cartoonist nominated it looks like…). It’d be such a nice way to end Boumeries. Thank you!!
Throwing up usually gives me a sore throat, maybe that’s part of the source of confusion? (Also a kid getting car sick is no fun, good luck with that!)
No, she says her throat is sore BEFORE throwing up!
This barf panel. I can’t stop laughing at the facial expressions. Amazing work!
It’s kinda perfect for this particular strip that your Gravatar looks like a pair of lungs
Man this doesn’t make sense in either language.
It’s a little more understandable in French I think, but it’s a language quirk kids can sometimes have. They get stuck on a wrong answer at a very young age, and remain stuck until they can actually read it or something…
I don’t speak French, but I clicked to the French version to see how close the phrases were since I remember you’ve said you speak French at home. I can totally see a kid mixing up those phrases and I can totally relate to how messy of a mistake it is!
I remember my mom was telling me that when she was little she couldn´t tell the difference either. Or at least was having very similar issues. Every time she was about to barf she said she feels sick in her throat. I recon for kid who is still not super familiar with its body signals it can be tricky. Feeling those weird pressures originating from your tummy going all the way up your throat.
