Humorous jokes about studying abroad

You know

Study abroad: America

Before studying abroad, I felt that my English was ok, and I even had a pet phrase when I spoke English. I always like to imitate the old American accent in American TV series, so I want to say something before I speak. Do you know that?/You know what? As an introduction. At that time, I felt that starting a conversation like this would produce a little closeness and immediately bring us closer.

We have an exam to sit down and talk face to face with our tutor. Because I usually ask more questions in class, I secretly think she should like me. Moreover, the Americans I come into contact with generally feel quite easy to get along with, so even teachers can be like friends face to face. During the exam, I also want to create a relaxed and equal dialogue atmosphere. Remember the question you asked me at that time? What do you think of the carnival? . I habitually blurted out:? You know, I didn't? There was no carnival before, but?

Just when I was about to show off my spoken English plausibly, I saw the other person staring at me blankly and interrupting me rudely? I don't know. I don't know. ? Suddenly I was embarrassed. Even more embarrassing, the teacher immediately added in a questioning tone:? Really? Don't you know? There was no carnival before? That look seems to tell me that you haven't been to the carnival? How to answer this question? How to express your views?

I know it is impossible to have a simple conversation, let alone get high marks?

Tip: You know is an informal expression, which is not suitable for such a formal occasion. It is best not to say so to your tutor.

Can I have another one?

Place of study: UK

Once I went to a restaurant with my English classmates, where the main course could continue. So a group of people went happily together. There are few main courses, and I am really not full after eating one. I immediately wanted to renew one, so I raised my hand and shouted to the waiter, Can I have another one? The waiter rushed over and looked at me in horror, then looked at my plate and asked me, Sir, is there a problem? I replied:? No, I just want another one. ? At some point, I am still a little worried. The British are also very stingy. Obviously it can be renewed. Why do you have to make a fuss when it comes to continuing meals?

The opposite classmate saw it and immediately smiled and explained to the waiter:? Another drink, please. The waiter just ran away, but it seems that there is still a knot in my heart. After the waiter brought another one, people kept asking me if I had any questions about the main course, and I rushed to say? No problem, no problem. I dare to bury my head in the next meal. I am very embarrassed.

Tip: It turns out that what this classmate said and the loud call before speaking will be mistaken for that I am not satisfied with the food and ask for a replacement. Usually this is a great dissatisfaction and criticism to a restaurant, and it is a matter of principle. Actually, it's just a simple question to ask for a meal renewal? Please have another drink. Yes, what does that mean? Can I have another copy? .

Where are you from?

Study abroad: America

The first time I called a taxi, the other party asked? Where are you from? I answered China. Still wondering if it's a taxi and nationality?

The other person may think I'm joking, so I'm depressed. Sorry, we can't do that. ? Hearing this, I was furious. There is no racial discrimination. Just ask: Why? The other party leng along while, hung up the phone.

Hint: ok, I admit it's a bit similar? How are you? Thank you. ? Unfortunately, the taxi driver just wants to know where to pick you up.

About the telephone number

Studying in Canada

I didn't know anyone when my friends first came, so I tried to make friends in class. One day, I thought a white buddy was very nice, so I asked for his phone number and made friends in the future.

So I asked:? What's your phone number? The white man said, Ten.

Tip: What is the general expression of making a phone call? May I have your phone number? Wait, like this? What's your phone number? Literal translation is obviously inappropriate.

Bilbil?

Studying in Canada

I came to Canada, didn't know anyone at school, and then ate by myself at noon. I heard from my classmates that the coffee at home was very good, and then I wanted to buy it. Then I went to the wrong place and ran to a French restaurant. Then I sat down and ordered the cheapest one.

I don't know how to pay the bill after dinner. Then I saw a man at the next table say Bill.

I heard the word bill, and then I called the waiter and said, "I'm finished, Bilbil."

Then he pointed to the money and made a pistol gesture, and then people were frightened. Then I called two men over, which surprised my friend and explained it for a long time before I went out.

Tip: How to pay the bill? Spoken English: Please check out! ? Or? Bill, please. ? Is the truest expression! Can you also express it like this? Waiter, I'll pay the bill. ?

Other expressions related to paying bills include: paying bills/paying bills/paying for the meal, and so on.

Legs? Ham!

Place of study: UK

A friend came to England for the first time, and the immigration inspection was very strict. Her mother asked her to bring a Jinhua ham to her friends here, but the dog smelled it and took it to the office. Then the police officer asked her to explain what was wrapped in the newspaper.

My classmate said legs?

Then the police officer looked scared and asked, "What? ! "My friend repeated his legs loudly!

She said, I thought at that time, why didn't the officer even know ham, but he also painted his legs for a long time. Legs are legs?

Tip: let's review how to say ham ~ it's ham. Legs are the floorboard of legs, and the first reaction is human legs. So the police officer was absolutely shocked ~

Yes or no?

Once the landlord asked me, have you eaten? I said no.

After listening, she repeated, "So don't eat anything." . I said yes.

The landlady hesitated and asked, "Have you eaten?" I said no.

She continued, so you didn't eat. I said yes.

I guess she's about to collapse.

Tip: This should be an old joke, but I still find it funny every time I listen to it. Cultural differences are really ingrained. So review it again.

The speaking habit of English-speaking countries is to answer truthfully. If you eat it, it means yes, if you don't eat it, it means no, no matter whether the question starts with yes or no.

What does the Statue of Liberty say?

A friend who has just arrived in the United States wants to see the Statue of Liberty when he arrives in new york, but he doesn't know the way. So I caught a white man on the side of the road-hey, do you know where the free woman is?

The white guy hesitated for a long time and stammered, I ... don't know ... just tell me when you know.

Tip: What is the correct statement of the Statue of Liberty? Statue of Liberty? . And free here can be understood as? Free? . So this sentence naturally embarrassed foreigners.
