Such a simple thing to say... especially after asking what some particular dance that I hadn't seen before was, and getting the name as an answer.
It took me an extra moment after I had said "Ah!" that I realised I really wasn't much more informed than before
But isn't that something that we often do? We produce some sound, some acknowledgement that we've received information.
In my own ears, though, the "Ah!" gave the message that I had understood everything, while the truth was that I just got a name...
Of course, I did ask further and got to know that it was a Hungarian dance, their kind of folk dance that comes in a number of varieties, like polskas are the common form in Sweden. (and by now, I've totally forgotten the name ;-))
