As I said in my previous post my old housemates Emma and
Lizi went travelling together. Since then Lizi has gone on to live and teach in
Hong Kong and will be doing the same in Spain in a few weeks. And Emma has
taught in Kenya. They are well travelled talented teachers!
Emma taught me Oi-Choi-Oi (spellings are phonetic) and that is Vietnamese
for oh my goodness. Lizi taught me 2 phrases in Chinese; Ligo-Sam-Sau which
means roll your sleeves up and moham which is don’t cry.
Also during the weekend I got a random text from my friend
Tom and he taught me Korb Koon Kaab which is Thai for thank you very much.
Kind of ironic that I spent the weekend in Wales and learnt
no welsh, but did learn some Chinese, Vietnamese and Thai!
