Learner's Mistake Eight
Sometimes you feel like a nut...
|
Here's a funny English sign found in a bar somewhere in the world:
"Special cocktails: For the ladies with nuts."
Explanation: There are many kinds of nuts that we can eat - peanuts, almonds, walnuts,
cashews. However, a nut can also be a person - a crazy person! So, the sign tried to describe a
cocktail (a special alcoholic drink) with some
kind of nuts but actually described a lady with a crazy person, perhaps her husband! (^_^) [The sign
should have been "Special cocktails with nuts for the ladies".]
