所以，今天我想講幾件軼事，都是因?yàn)闆](méi)有理解聽(tīng)到看到的東西而鬧出的笑話。也許，從他們的經(jīng)驗(yàn)中，你也可以學(xué)到一些東西。

第一個(gè)故事發(fā)生在秘魯，一位美國(guó)婦女在餐館里用餐。她問(wèn)服務(wù)員： Excuse me. Where could I wash my hands？ 服務(wù)員把她帶到洗手間，可不巧，正有一些工人在粉刷洗手間的墻壁。

工人們一看有人要用洗手間，就準(zhǔn)備離開(kāi)。服務(wù)員攔住他們，說(shuō)： That's Ok. Stay. She only wants to wash her hands. 在英語(yǔ)里，wash my hands實(shí)際上是上廁所的委婉說(shuō)法。

那個(gè)服務(wù)員按照字面意思理解，結(jié)果鬧了笑話。 還有一次，一個(gè)留學(xué)生在國(guó)外的學(xué)校第一天上學(xué)，心里又興奮又緊張。

一個(gè)美國(guó)人見(jiàn)到一張新面孔，為了表示友好，就問(wèn)： Hi! What's the good word？ 留學(xué)生一聽(tīng)到這個(gè)，立刻傻眼了，他想， My God! I don't know the good word. I've studied English for years, but no one told me about the good word！ 他猶豫再三，想，反正我也不知道，就問(wèn)問(wèn)他好了。于是他吞吞吐吐地問(wèn)： Hello. What's the good word？ 老美聽(tīng)了，很隨意地說(shuō)： Oh, not much. 這下，這個(gè)留學(xué)生就更吃驚了！ 原來(lái)，What's the good word？ 在美語(yǔ)里，是一句問(wèn)候語(yǔ)，意思是“你還好嗎？”但問(wèn)話的人并不指望你把遇到的高興的事情都一一告訴他，只是打個(gè)招呼而已。

但這個(gè)留學(xué)生以為對(duì)方真的在問(wèn)什么是Good word，所以鬧了笑話，不過(guò)還好，也算給他歪打正著了。 下面的故事就更有意思了。

一次，一個(gè)美國(guó)公司的管理人員給公司一個(gè)駐外分部發(fā)了一份傳真，要求對(duì)方把職員的人數(shù)報(bào)上來(lái)。他是這么說(shuō)的： I need a head count telling the number of people in your factory, the number of people in your office, broken。
