English is really confusing sometimes. You think you understand, but you don't.

So, today I'm going to tell a few anecdotes, all of which are jokes because I don't understand or understand. Maybe you can learn something from their experience.

The first story happened in Peru. An American woman was eating in a restaurant. She asked the waiter: Excuse me. Where can I wash my hands? The waiter took her to the bathroom. Unfortunately, some workers were painting the bathroom walls.

The workers are ready to leave as soon as they see someone wanting to use the bathroom. The waiter stopped them and said, nothing. Stay. She just wants to wash her hands. In English, washing hands is actually a euphemism for going to the toilet.

The waiter literally made a joke. On another occasion, an international student was both excited and nervous on his first day in a foreign school.

When an American sees a new face, he asks: Hi! What's good about it? Hearing this, the foreign students were dumbfounded at once. He thought, Oh, my God! I don't know what a good word is. I have been learning English for many years, but no one has told me this good word! He hesitated, thinking, I don't know anyway, just ask him. So he asked hesitantly, Hello. What's good about it? The United States listened and casually said: Oh, not much. Now, this international student is even more surprised! So, what's good about it? In American English, it is a greeting, which means "Are you okay?" But the questioner doesn't expect you to tell him all the happy things you encounter, just say hello.

But the foreign student thought that the other student was really asking for something good, so he made a joke, but fortunately, it was a mistake. The following story is even more interesting.

Once, the manager of an American company sent a copy to the company's foreign branch.
