Still Mad About CD Prices<p>I have one other language prank story that I personally experienced (among several others that are probably urban legends). 1988, Cuernavaca, Morelos, <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Mexico" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mexico</span></a>. I was a very young, innocent Mormon missionary. I had spent 2 months learning Spanish, which was just enough to realize, once I got to Mexico, that I didn't know Spanish.</p><p>My experience was largely walking around in a foreign country, understanding every tenth word, and hoping I could figure some things out from context. My first mission companion was named Medina. He was not always helpful in my language struggle.</p><p>During my first week we ate lunch at a very nice lady's house. Afterward, while she was in the other room, Medina whisper-coached me on what to say to the lady. When she came back in, I proudly said, "Gracias, señora. La comida estuvo muy asquerosa." As you probably guessed, Medina had me tell her that the meal was very disgusting.</p><p>The lady looked at me for about two seconds, then turned to Medina and started yelling at him. He was grinning like an idiot.</p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/story" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>story</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/truestory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>truestory</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/language" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>language</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/spanish" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>spanish</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/espa%C3%B1ol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>español</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/prank" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>prank</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/frenemy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>frenemy</span></a></p>
Still Mad About CD Prices<p>One Million Years Ago I met two adorable <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Chinese" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Chinese</span></a> exchange students at college in Utah. Their names were Frances and Michelle. The said they would teach me Mandarin. I practiced 20 or so phrases and they critiqued my pronunciation whenever I was at their apartment.</p><p>They said a greeting was very important, so they taught me how to say hello. They said in <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Mandarin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mandarin</span></a> it was important to greet women differently from men. I don't have any idea how to spell/transliterate this, but they said I had to say to them, every time we met, something like "Ni hao, Pio Liang." They were very happy when I said it, clearly because I was doing so well.</p><p>A few months later, we had all drifted apart (as is common in college) and I met another Mandarin speaker. She was surprised to learn there were gendered greetings in Mandarin. I told her what Frances and Michelle had taught me for "hello [to women]" and she laughed so hard she cried. It took a minute or two for her to be able to tell me Frances and Michelle had trained me to say they were very beautiful every time I saw them.</p><p>No regrets. They were quite beautiful.</p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/story" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>story</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/truestory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>truestory</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/language" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>language</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/prank" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>prank</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/funny" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>funny</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/noregrets" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>noregrets</span></a></p>
