Answer 2

"I keep six honest serving men" is a line from the poem "The Elephant's Child" by Rudyard Kipling. Here's the full poem:

I keep six honest serving-men (They taught me all I knew); Their names are What and Why and When And How and Where and Who.

I send them over land and sea, I send them east and west; But after they have worked for me, I give them all a rest.

I let them rest from nine till five, For I am busy then, As well as breakfast, lunch, and tea, For they are hungry men.

But different folk have different views; I know a person small— She keeps ten million serving-men, Who get no rest at all!

She sends 'em abroad on her own affairs, From the second she opens her eyes— One million Hows, two million Wheres, And seven million Whys!

This poem uses a metaphorical language to suggest that the speaker gains knowledge and understanding through the six "honest serving-men" named What, Why, When, How, Where, and Who. These six elements represent the key questions we ask to gain information and solve problems.

To read the phrase "I keep six honest serving men" in English, you would pronounce it as follows: Eye kee-p six ah-nest sur-ving men.
