Okay, but drop the /-Hey/. Mathezar is not apparently a child. /-Hey/ is
for saying you're pretty sure, but can't verify, that the thing you're
talking about is accurately described by the noun you chose, not for
resemblance. His understanding of performance is like a child's. There are
no apparent children anywhere. This is why I liked the /rur/ solution:
"He's like a child; explain it to him now that you know that."
