does she know what it means?
Obviously not if she picked it for her new word.
It's just a different way to say "thing", right? :D
In Australia, thongs are something you wear on your feet - not underwear. I believe you may call them flip flops.
Sometimes it's just great how many adult jokes are in kid movies.
Well a thong is a strip of leather technically speaking, and it's the first definition given in the dictionary. So I don't really see a wrong in her using it.
The Australian definition of thong is what americans call "flip flops" too.

Show it anyway#13, used to be in Canada, too. I still call them thongs just to annoy people.
24, I don't know about you, but for me, my words are chosen to properly convey my thoughts, not in an attempt to confuse and annoy others, and lead to them misinterpting what I am saying
So you're saying I should change my vocabulary because underwear manufacturers decided to call uncomfortable panties a word that was universally known for decades as footwear? I grew up calling 'flip flops', 'thongs', as that's what my generation learned. I find it hilarious that younger generations get annoyed at my 'historical' term. Should I also change calling the pound symbol on the phone, to calling it a hashtag so younger folk will know what I'm referring to?
Also rugrats
It's also the older crowds version of flip flops ;-) trust me my mother exclaimed that to a frenemy of my sisters when they were out shopping once buying sandals. My sister was mortified.
Sandals and thongs are different. Thongs are "flip flops".
Just have her use this definition: a narrow strip of leather or other material, used especially as a fastening or as the lash of a whip.
Ew, don't force sexuality on kids.
Uh... Does someone need to call the cops? Search your computer?
#15 & #44 It was a joke not a dick, don't take it so hard
Heh, das funny.
Did you ask her to use it in a sentence?
