在美國德州讀書。當時想向教授表達"我來了"，然后我來了句"I'm coming"。教授整個人都不好了。
I was studying in Texas,the US.When I tried to tell our professor that "here I am," I said "I'm coming." The professor can't be more embarrassed.
"I'm coming" is often said bypeople when they are about to have an orgasm. It's a phrase heard on American tv shows and movies and it's used in off-color jokes. Instead,"Here!" or "I'm not here but on the way" is what the professor thought he or she was going to hear.

去英國時坐飛機，空姐倒完水之后我說Thanks，空姐說Cheers，于是我就對她舉了舉杯?？战惝敃r就驚呆了。再之后從海關(guān)到機場大巴司機，一路上都有人跟我說cheers，我就疑惑了啊，我這手里也沒杯子啊怎么cheers？！
When I travelled by air in Britain, the stewardess served me some water and I said "Thanks", she said"cheers", then I raised my cup. She looked puzzled. Then out of the plane I found almost all people, from Customs staff to shuttle bus driver, were saying "cheers." Why cheers? I have no glass in hand!

美國同事問我中午吃了啥？我想說，吃了餐館打包的東西(應該是doggy bag)話到嘴邊變成了dog food。他看著我狂笑三分鐘。
When a US colleague asked me what I had for lunch, I said "dog food," which should have been "doggy bag." He laughed wildly.

在英國，一中國同學去菜場想買母雞回來燉湯喝，不會說hen，只說要chicken，人家指給他一個大公雞，他搖搖頭，說：I don't want this one, I want his wife.
When I was in Britain, one of my Chinese classmates wanted to make some chicken soup, so he went to the grocery. He said he wanted to buy "chicken," not knowing the word "hen." So when the grocer showed him a rooster, my classmate shook his head and said"I don't want this one, I want his wife!"

機場工作人員問：Who are you flying with?(你坐哪家航空公司？)我答：Myself。對方大囧，一笑之后補充：Which airline？
An airport staffer asked me "Who areyou flying with?" and I said "Myself." He was surprised and thenlaughed, adding "Which airline?"
