I love how in Japanese the words for cute and scary sound very similar, and I laugh at how many people have insulted someone by getting them mixed up.

The other day my Japanese boyfriend sent me a text saying “Going home now, cock for dinner”. Great, hope he meant cook!

Finally, there was a quote competition recently from to see what interesting/ridiculous things our student say. Here’s one of my favs.

[Ok just got this - in response to: What is the greatest invention of the
20th century (give an advantage and a disadvantage).

It is lime.
When we have sports festival we can understand where we should run. But if it into eye, very danger.]

So if you do make a mistake while abroad you know plenty of others are doing just the same. Just make sure you post about it so we can all have a laugh.

When my friend went to France, she took along a language book I gave her that only had dirty words in it. I asked her to please not start an international incident with it, and since France is still standing, as is Australia (her native land), apparently all is well. I don’t imagine that standard guide you have will have any of those choice words in it.

I wish all brits put this much effort into their holiday! Noone I know learns the local language! I only learnt a few words of chinese because I recognised chouyung in the taxi drivers sentence (all my anime turned out to be useful!) and he tried to teach me some basic chinese! I’ve forgotten it all mind but I can say thankyou, waitress, bill and hello!

“Os seus olhos lindos me derreta… estou ficando no Hotel na quarta nÃºmero , tÃªm uma festa lÃ¡ e vocÃª precisa ir!”
(And when she arrives, and there is no one else there…)
“FESTA NAS MINHAS CALÃ‡AS!!”
(AHAHHHHAHAAHHAHA!!!)

“vocÃª nÃ£o foi carregado um homem era vocÃª?” is “you weren’t born a man were you?” which could be useful
