Mandarin Lesson

Few weeks back, my sister had to attend her friend’s wedding and so the day before we went shopping for a new dress. After trying from shop to shop, I finally told her not to speak mandarin to the salesgirls because her mandarin sounds funny. FYI: my sister’s mandarin is worst than mine. But she don’t wan listen to me and so this funny incident happen.

Me: How is the dress? You like it?
Sis: Yeah, I’m buying
Me: You wan look for another dress? You wan show mom first?
Sis: Ok, we come back later

Then my sister turns and talks to the salesgirl. She’s trying to ask the sales girl to keep it first while we continue shopping. The following conversation is in mandarin.

Sis: Nah Chi Kern Wo Shao Teow !
Me: BURN :-o Shou ok not Shao!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

The moral of the story, don’t speak mandarin if you don’t know how !
