Amusing language errors
Permalink  

I checked my mail this morning, and found a very sweet message from a Spanish colleague.  Names have been changed to preserve anonymity.


Hi Copper,



Last Friday I told you that I would send you my e-mail address, it is here, and if you fancy a paella just give me a shout.


I love cocking.



Cheers,



Spanish colleague.

Heh.  Don't think I need to, my friend.  We all know you play for the other team, now!

(Am I coming across as desperate?)

I've never heard it called paella before.


Just doesn't sound right.  "Ello love.  Wanna come back to my place for a bit of paella?"

An update:


Hi Copper,



Sure! I would be happy doing some cocking tonight.


When could we meet?



Spanish colleague.



The question is - is it time to tell her that cocking really isn't the right word???

Heh.  I say go for it, Copp!  You should never turn down a bit of good cocking.  I personally have a bit of a soft spot for anyone who can cock well.  They can cock for me any time they want! 


Get cocking!


I think you should tell her at a time that will cause maximum embarrasment.  At the table for example.  You could say something along the lines of 'Gosh, Spanish Colleague.  I've never had such good cocking!'


Obviously she will look somewhat shocked, after which you can explain her cunning lingual faux pas.
