Me (pointing at a picture of an elephant in a book): Joseph, do you remember what these are called?
Joseph: Those are tusks.
Me (surprised): Yes, those are tusks.
Joseph: And that is a trunk, and that is a trunk (pointing to two separate elephants). That trunk is closed (pointing to a trunk that was kind of rolled up), and that trunk is open.
Me: I guess you could say that. Does Joseph have a trunk?
Joseph: Nope. (Then after thinking for a minute) Joseph's trunk is on the car, in the Civic.

It's like plurals all over again! He is so smart, knowing the difference. Wait until he learns the words are even spelled the same. It's going to blow his mind.
