A funny story A few years ago I decided with my friends to have an holiday in Spain. We went to Ibiza at the Baleary islands. We went out a night to drink something and to dance in some discotheque. We walked around for some hours when saw a group of girls out of a bar. My friend liked one of those girls and we tryed to chat with them about the usual things: the better beaches, the best discoutheque where we had been until now and about the place where they came from. They came from another city of Spain and they stayed there on holiday. At those years I didn’t speak English (as well as now…), so me and my friends searched to explain us in Italian because it has many words similar to Spanish. The discussion was pleasant but I noticed one of those girls remained aloof. I thougth that probably she was ashamed and I tryed to make her partecipate of our talks. I asked her if she was “imbarazzata”, this word means “embarassed” in English, and I looked her to redden. The girls’ friends began to laugh so much that I asked them what was my wrong because I wished to apologize with her. They tell me that the word “embarazada” means “pregnant” in Spanish! So, I got the opposite of that I wanted, because that girl became more red than before!
