Elysian Posted September 29, 2005 ^^^^ There’s a scientific explanation for why japanese people simply can’t distinguish between pronounced R and L. Sometimes it just gets really funny when talking to them. Came to the lab one day. The whole corridor smelled yeast, looked around and found my colleagues at the coffee table at end of the hall. Went up to them and asked about the bad smell. The japanese guy, lets call him Fujiko, raised his cup, smiled at me and replied “we’re having lice beer, want someâ€. In one of the rooms at the lab I use for salaat. I laughed the first time when Fujiko referred to it as “playoom†sounding very much like playroom. But the worst thing is when people looking for me are told “come back lateh, she is playingâ€â€¦ It puts me in a really awkward situation. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
