It’s only human to chuckle at others… and (hopefully) we chuckle at ourselves from time to time…

I know I’ve made some howlers…

Wretched’s primary meaning is ‘unfortunate’. She was certainly unfortunate.

But not in French, and we were in Inter, in France, she was speaking French (good for her for trying, but for me, a French person, it was funny).

Of course she didn’t realise she was talking about condoms, that is why I sniggered, because clearly I have a mental age of 12.

But she was in France so wasn’t using the correct word at all. I’d have been sniggering as well…childish I know!

I announced proudly once that I had learned to fold t shirts like a champignon. I meant champion……

Years ago, someone using quickfire French introduced me to a young lady … I only really picked up the word “enceinte” and blithely asked her when “baby” was expected…

The correct word was “enseignante” = teacher… oops… :rofl:

Poor lass told me her baby was born 3 months ago and she was trying hard to budge the extra weight she’d put on during her pregnancy… :roll_eyes:

She took no offence and understood my confusion… phew.

Yorkshires are good with jam :slight_smile:

Obviously not at the same time as meat and gravy though.

As children we were given left overs with jam, am I right in thinking it originated Yorkshire way?

Yorkshire pudding with golden syrup is a marvellous thing.
