Some time ago, I and my friend went to a deparment store with a little English and lot of guts. We wanted to buy chinaware so we went staight to the first employee in order to get directions. After Hi and how may I help you, I said to her "We would like to buy Chinnese" The lady, whom I can still visualize her face got shocked and said "My dear, we don't sell people here!" The good part was that the person who was with me didn't understand what the lady said, therefore, romurs and jokes about my poor language skills didn't hit Dixon street:-) Now, after some very long and cold winters here in Toronto, at least I can look back those learning days and laugh!

Do you have a similar story? Please share it with us and remember, we are all anonymous on the net.

Footnote: Dixon Rd., the most popular street in Diaspora Somalis is located in Toronto, Canada.

One of our college teachers had a very bad hand-writing and has always written in capitals.

One day he wrote the word "flicker" in capitals like "FLICKER" on the board. There was no space between the letters "L" and "I" beacuse of that, the word changed the complete meaning of the sentence. The class started laughing and shouting until the teacher got angry and walked out of the class. He cme back with school officials and started complaining. Then, one student was asked why everyone was making all this noise. He simply said " The teacher used a vulgar language in a math class - read the board:-)

Flipper.
