Here is a conversation in the hospital between a mom who can’t talk so she writes on a pad instead, and her adult daughter:

Your hair is up.

Do you like it, Mom?

A “chignon.”

Yes. Ha! A “shig-nun.” I didn’t know it was called that.

It isn’t.

You just wrote it down “chignon.”

“She-non!”

She knows what?

“She-non!”

Mom, please don’t be upset. It’s just hair.

“Chignon.”
