I am beginning to understand why people in other countries consider English the hardest language to learn!

But, it's the one everyone wants to learn!

I use to work with a girl from Germany who learned much of her English from the Oxford English Dictionary

One day at work, I was joking around and called her a wench .. she didn't know what I meant and proceeded to look it up in her dictionary .. a few seconds later she yells .. I am not a whore!!

That's when I learned to be really careful with the words I choose *L*
