English Speaking

Recently, I had received a forwarded email from my BF with title "English is a difficult language...for some!"


Its really can make me laugh when I was upset during the receiving of the email, as below:

(I didn't mean to offence anyone, I also have my own story due to my poor speaking, in English of course!)

"few years ago, a former Japanese PM (Shen XI Lang), when given speech, he pronounced IT (Information Technology) as "it" (He, she, "It", that "it"), and keep repeating it during his speech, ha! ha! ha!

This is a true story from the Japanese Embassy in US!!! A few days ago, Prime Minister Mori was given some Basic English conversation training before he visits Washington and meets president Barack Obama... The instructor told Mori Prime Minister, when you shake hand with President Obama, please say 'how r u'. Then Mr. Obama should say, 'I am fine, and you?' Now, you should say 'me too'. Afterwards we, translators, will do the work for you.' It looks quite simple, but the truth is... When Mori met Obama , he mistakenly said 'who r u?' (Instead of 'How r u?'.) Mr. Obama was a bit shocked but still managed to react with humor: 'Well, I'm Michelle's husband, ha-ha...' Then Mori replied 'me too, ha-ha.. .'. Then there was a long silence in the meeting room. "

Let hear my story:

I believe that everybody will make mistake, perhap mistakes, in our life. We are human being, right? The most important thing is we should learnt from our mistake!! A man tried to deny or ignore the mistake will never learn from it, the problem will happen and happen again, never end - This is my theory.

Alright, sometimes it is too difficult to admit that we are making mistake, I faced with the same condition too. I have my own responce to it too: if anyone telling me that certain acts are never allowed in any circumstance and I had done with the same thing, I will only answer that "okay, I understand now". There is a technician who also tell lies to cover his mistake in my company. I grabbed a chance to warn him that I am alert to what is going in the factory when my bosses from Thailand were in Malaysia company.

In our life, there are always mistake and faulties... This is life experience, we are learning from our experience! Don't be afraid to make mistake, the most important is Do Not Repeat The Mistake!
