Examples

“Were you surprised when your parents remained calm when you told them about your grades? When you failed your midterms, I went to your house and apologized. Granted that your angkong hit me with his cane, which I guess I deserved. I didn't want you to be less of who you were before you met me.”

“After Angkong was buried, a Chinese altar, with the accompanying table for making offerings, was purchased and installed in the dining room. His portrait and altar faced the dining table, and from then on, the altar would be the focal point of family life.”
