A few months after starting teaching in Thailand, I was working at a government school with a load of teenagers.
A group of girls were asking me if I could speak Thai, so I played the old "nik noi" card etc and everyone chuckled.
The girls then said they would teach me something.
Repeat after us "yaak lear hee."
And silly me did, syllable by syllable, before it dawned on me what I had just said.
So, as much me saying something as them really, but I've always been wary of any "language lessons" from teenagers since then.
Me: You can't call him fat, it's rude
5 year old: Okay, if he falls on you it would hurt.
Pretty much impossible not to chuckle at that one.
Mongolian kids cursed like sailors on shore leave. Running in the corridor also a CONSTANT issue at the school I was working at. Decide to get one of my classes (they were grade three, going on grade 4) to come up with a poster and a catchy slogan. One kids suggested "Stop running you mother...welll you get the idea lol.
Youtube has a lot to answer for.
Teacher - stop trying to put your hand up suzanne's skirt

Trying to type and talk at the same time. I was amazed that an adult would say a buffet was the greatest invention.
I was having a chat about pets with an adult Vietnamese student, so I asked her, did you ever have pets as a child?
She then tells me about the little doggy she loved deeply, until her grandparents came to visit from upcountry and cooked the dog up for dinner.
