This is a cool thread. Shame about the lovely thread tag, though.

The_Continental posted:To be fair, any time I brought out a camera in Burkina, children would JUMP in front of it and start throwing up peace signs. Additionally, I have like zero pictures of myself before or after Peace Corps. I think its only natural for people to want to show and tell others about their experience, that doesn't make them a sociopath. Yeah but... for your booty call app profile?

The_Continental posted:Between French and English you have words called "faux amis" or false cognates. Jolie, doesnt mean Jolly, it means pretty, for example. The word for "excited" can also mean "sexually aroused". I was trying to express gratitude for the opportunity to work with the headmaster of a primary school and essentially told him I couldn't wait to meet the students, and was really horny. There's something similar with "embarrassed" and the Spanish word, "embarazada." Many young English-speaking women in Spanish-speaking countries have thought they were saying, "I'm very embarrassed," and ended up saying, "I'm very pregnant."
