Several years ago, I saw my friend’s IM status that read ‘lieur’. I have a very limited grasp of other languages but Javanese, Indonesian and English so I took a guess of what language that word came from.
‘I didn’t know you study French,’ I chatted him.
‘What French?’
‘That status message; it’s French, right?’
‘Ha! That’s how we say “dizzy” in Sundanese.’
‘Well, I didn’t know that Sundanese and French languages can be so alike.’
‘LMAO. So, you’ve been studying French?’
‘Umm… no.’
