<\/figure>\n\n\n\nWe know, we know, being embarrassed is nothing to be congratulated for, but that is in regard to what it means in English. If someone misinterprets it in Spanish, they might come congratulating you for a similar word Embarazad in Spanish means, well \u2018Pregnant\u2019. No need to flaunt your IELTS coaching here, just use a simpler word like \u2018ashamed\u2019 in a multicultural gathering.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now what can be as simple as a Gift? Such a nice, pleasant and peaceful gesture, unless some German student could not hold back on their roots and misinterpret it as \u2018Poison\u2019. Yes, a gift in the German language means poison. So, if you are at a study abroad event, and have got some \u2018gifts\u2019 for your friends, make sure your friend is not a German before declaring you have got \u2018gifts\u2019. Or else just be ready to get into a legal battle, especially if you are in Germany. Well, that\u2019s an exaggeration, you will have enough time to explain things.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But not far enough to research his translation before delivering a speech. In our scenario, let\u2019s imagine a Norwegian student up on the stage. He or she is talking about achievement, and wonderfully blending their ethnic language with English to establish a connection and authenticity in his\/her reference. And then, there it is, suddenly he\/she proclaims, \u2018Fart up to your goals, for if you won\u2019t, someone else definitely will<\/em>\u2019. The ringing of laughter across the hall is going to shake the whole town. Fart, in Norwegian culture, means \u2018Speed<\/em><\/strong>\u2019. So while taking references from your regional language is a wonderful idea, it is better to also check the other dictionaries before using them in your speech. Otherwise, it will lead to \u2018embarrassment\u2019, in ENGLISH.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\nEnglish: Release of gastric pressure from the human body<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nNorwegian: Speed<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nHow Would You Like Some Challa?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nWhen spoken in a manner, Chal Aa <\/em>in Hindi means, come on, let\u2019s go. But if an American student walks up to you over a tea break and asks you \u2018Chal aa<\/em>\u2019 don\u2019t just stand up and walk along, they aren\u2019t asking you for a smoke break. They are probably asking for Challah<\/em> a popular teatime snack in America. Aww, did you feel they had gone through the pain of learning a bit of Hindi for you? Well, better luck next time.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\nEnglish: a Teatime snack\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nHindi: Walk\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nWait\u2026, <\/strong>What if Humanoid Teachers Become the Way of the World?<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\nI Bought This From a Library<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nYou and your friend have been searching for the same course book in the library for a long time. It was out of stock back then, until one day you see your friend with the same book and rush to question. The only answer they give you is, \u2018I bought this\u2026, from a Library\u2019. As baffled as you might be at the moment, don\u2019t let this delusion trick you. Library in French is used for Bookstores and Bookshops as well, so if your friend is still stuck in a French world, just ask them which library and buy one for yourself as well.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
