    It makes more sense to accept: you are not a grandmother

          It does also accept "You are not a grandmother."

          In Kenya nyanya means grandmother, but not in Tanzania.

          This helps, all this tomato talk made me wonder if I may be one.

              Ik ben geen tomaat; ik ben een appel! (Anyone who's done the Dutch course will get the joke.)
