Another piece of data for his growing knowledge of the mysteries of English. One word can have several different meanings. Just wait till he tackles the 100-some-odd meanings of "up"!

He's already learning some different meanings of "on." Turning lights *on* and turning water *on* are similar, yet different. But putting a block *on* your head is entirely different!
