Okay I've calmed down a little, I think. Anyway let me tell you this amusing incident that happened to me a few days ago (some of you have probably heard it).
I was at the chicken rice stall buying food for Mansheel and myself. She wanted a fried egg with her chicken rice. In the process of thinking of the word for 'fried' and relaying it to the auntie, my brain short circuited on the way and I said: 'zha dan (bomb)', the 'zha' for 'zha zhi (fried chicken)'. Anyway Jacinth (who was next to me), the auntie and I all burst out laughing madly. It was quite absurd. In the end I said 'chao dan (fried egg)' to the auntie and Mansheel got her fried egg.
