Too Many Language ~ 3



when i was still studying in college,

i have a Pakistani friend;

which i have forgotten his name.

sigh~ forgotten 

again.

once, i was not feeling well. 

he saw me and asked something like: "are you ok? what is wrong with you?"

i answered: "netsu (熱 - heat)."

which comes from 発熱 (fever). 

then i took some time and tell him i got a fever.

it is a reflects;

that sometimes the word in your mother tongue 

or in English just wont come out.

just like when i was in the aircraft company,

on the second day there,

while waiting for all of them to come,

some of them came in and greeted each other

who sat on the same table i am sitting in:

"jou san (cantonese)."

even i was playing pc game that time,

i automatically replied the same;

because i got used to greet everyone in office the same

almost every morning.

i never get to learn Pakistani though.
