I have turned 29 for the 19th time, what is my real age.
Ah, yes, we're riffing off of the whole "a woman does not turn 30, she turns 29 for the 2nd time."
Is this common knowledge? I've never heard or seen it; so, I had no clue what the exercise author was talking about. (Thank goodness you're here.)

The teacher ought to have included some reference.

PS: I'm wondering how this exercise will go for students from countries where women don't have such a hang-up about their age, like so many from the United States do. :p

I don't know if this is "common knowledge", but, in my experience, it's a fairly common joke. ;)
