Daughter,like her father

                                      Daughter,like her father


That day when Birbal came to court, his daughter was with him. Akbar was really surprised to see her on court. Akbar wanted to know whether she is as clever as her father?
To know, Akbar asked her a question. i.e. whether she knows Persian Language? To that she replied to "to some extent yes and to some extent no".
Akbar was puzzled by the answer. Then Birbal explained what his daughter meant.
To some extent yes= she knows more than the beginner who is learning the language.
To some extent no= she doesnt know much like a scholar of that language.
:Hearing to that, Akbar came to know that Birbal's daughter is as intelligent as her father.
