Lost in translation.....

Calling to check on a friend this morning as she’s been unwell, she told me her French home help , turned up, took one look at her and exclaimed “Oh Madame, you look like sheet”, shocked my friend replied “I beg your pardon” ? only to see the help stroking her cheek, saying “sheet, sheet, white like sheet”

I’ve barely been able to stop laughing all day

During a presidential election years ago, I was dating a Chinese woman. She said, "I can't wait to see the results of the erection."
There were many such laughs during our relationship.
