The story of English making jokes because of pronunciation mistakes.

In college, there was a get-together with American college students. Everyone laughed and laughed, but still not satisfied, so they invited American students to our dormitory to play. On the way, an American girl asked, "Where is the bathroom?" I wonder why she cares where our bathroom is. I showed her the truth.

The girl then said that she wanted to go in. I quickly said to her, "Sorry, our bath is closed. Our bathroom is closed. " It was the girl's turn to shake her head in surprise. Joking all the way to the dormitory, the girl asked again, "Where is your bath?" Why do you ask again? Seeing that I was at a loss, the girl said that she had drunk too much water and wanted to respond to "relieve myself". I suddenly realized. It turned out that she wanted to go to the bathroom. After carefully checking the book, bath refers not only to the bathroom, but also to the bathroom more often. However, in some simplified dictionaries, so far, only the bathroom is explained.

This is a joke, but the other one is not so humorous. At that time, I took the elevator with some friends in a hotel in Las Vegas, USA. As soon as the ladder door opened, three big American boys rushed in. One of them, facing one of my female companions, asked, "Are you working?" The girl who just arrived in America replied, "Yes, but I'm on vacation now. Yes, but I'm on vacation now. " The three big boys looked ambiguous with a wry smile on their faces. This makes us very confused. The senior sister in the same trade looks somber, and she looks like she wants to talk and stop. Afterwards, she told us, "Are you working?" This is a slang term for a prostitute who solicits customers in America. We all thought he was asking, "Are you at work?" What a nuisance!

There are fewer people in Britain and more people in China.
