This is the sort of ridiculous and funny conversation that could only happen among siblings -
It started with a throwaway comment about language and made-up words - then, son said, "nihil" and sister replied, "That's not made up. It's Latin! And it means nothing."
At this point, youngest, who had been sitting quietly between them, muttering made-up rhyming nonsense, piped up, " If nihil is really a word, then it can't mean nothing - that's impossible!"
