| 520 | |a "'Thank you, Amma,' says the child as her mother praises a birdhouse she's making with her friend Angelina. With two languages spoken at home, English and Malayalam (the most common language in Kerala, India, where her parents and grandparents were born), Amma is a word the child uses for her Indian-American mom.
