forgotten faux pas

oh a friend has just reminded me of some amusing faux pas that i have made recently.

in my eagerness to speak german, sometimes i speak a little too fast for my own good.

like the words switzig and spritzig.. one means sweaty and the other means to cum.. and the other day i think i said i was cumming instead of i was sweaty.. hahaha...luckily i was among friends

and the word for humid and the word for gay are sooo similar that its so easy to get it wrong for a non german they are both spelt the same..... schwul but i think one has an umlaut over the u which make it a different sound.. so of course i am often saying its so gay or its so humid.. and getting it wrong

oh well. the fun of learning a new language
