bold

Reader's　Digest 9月号の記事 "Life in these United States" からの引用です。

My husband and I asked our 4-year-old grandson to describe his grandpa. "Bold", he answered. I praised him for such a kind compliment.
Then he held his bangs back at his hairline and asked, "Am I getting bold?"

そう言えば "bold" には二つの意味がありましたね。
