Nice Anyway, here in similar vein is one involving Hungarian. The explanation is that the Hungarian word for F*** is 'bus'. A man runs to a bus-stop. Out of breath and panting, he asks soneone who looks like they've been waiting some time if the number 34 bus has arrived. "I've been here some time and not seen it" was the reply. "Phew" he says as he sits down "Thank god for that!". Along comes this woman who'se really good looking. She goes up to the man and says "You look like you've been excersising". "Not exactly excersising - just trying to get here on time". With a seductive look, she asks "How would you like some real excersize" and winks at him. With that, the two of them disapperar out of site. After a while, the man returns. The person who was there before he arrived said "You realise you've just missed your bus?" The man replies "So what, I just bussed the miss." If anyone else has jokes involving trans-lingual puns, then please post them here. Arthur Kalliokoski said:

בזמן לימודים למבחן בערבית:
We used to study Arabic on Fridays for 4 hours straight, other than a 15-30 minutes break in the middle. During this break we ate (usually Humus, though sometimes we were more original), practiced for tests, and played a really dumb game with a balloon, called "Nagachat נגחת". One day (more than one day really, but it sounds much better than "many days"), we studied conditionals. The main example we used was: |

Have you tried the "Don't jump" prank. If you're with a group of friends and you see someone on a balcony, keep shouting "Don't jump!" at them. See if you attract a crowd of people. It would be interesting if someone tried that in Bourbon Street in New Orleans. AE. -- |

I wished you'd mentioned that a couple of months ago. It was the perfect opportunity. My friend was just about to go off to the army, and was feeling bad because he knew it was going to suck. And he was standing on a balcony. It would've been perfect. Ah well, I'm sure I'll have another chance.

Hm, what about if you walk along a sidewalk with yuour friends, then you suddenly shout "Don't jump!" and point at a spot just in front of their feet. They will jump sideways. And you will say "Suckers!" and earn their eternal admiration. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Years of thorough research have revealed that what people find beautiful about the Mandelbrot set is not the set itself, but all the rest. |

When I want to freak out my friends I usually just jump on them suddenly. Scares them every time, even when they're looking right at me.

It doesn't really mean anything, it was just stupid pun. I'll write it in English: Quote: By the way, how do you find translations with Google? Are there certain sites you need to Google for? Babylon should work, I guess (though it won't work on the sentences I wrote, since they weren't in Hebrew, I just wrote them in Hebrew letters because I couldn't be bothered to write in Arabic). Other than that, here's an Arabic-English-Arabic dictionary, and here's one for Hebrew. |
