所以，今天我想讲几件轶事，都是因为没有理解听到看到的东西而闹出的笑话。也许，从他们的经验中，你也可以学到一些东西。
第一个故事发生在秘鲁，一位美国妇女在餐馆里用餐。她问服务员： Excuse me. Where could I wash my hands？ 服务员把她带到洗手间，可不巧，正有一些工人在粉刷洗手间的墙壁。
工人们一看有人要用洗手间，就准备离开。服务员拦住他们，说： That's Ok. Stay. She only wants to wash her hands. 在英语里，wash my hands实际上是上厕所的委婉说法。
那个服务员按照字面意思理解，结果闹了笑话。 还有一次，一个留学生在国外的学校第一天上学，心里又兴奋又紧张。
一个美国人见到一张新面孔，为了表示友好，就问： Hi! What's the good word？ 留学生一听到这个，立刻傻眼了，他想， My God! I don't know the good word. I've studied English for years, but no one told me about the good word！ 他犹豫再三，想，反正我也不知道，就问问他好了。于是他吞吞吐吐地问： Hello. What's the good word？ 老美听了，很随意地说： Oh, not much. 这下，这个留学生就更吃惊了！ 原来，What's the good word？ 在美语里，是一句问候语，意思是“你还好吗？”但问话的人并不指望你把遇到的高兴的事情都一一告诉他，只是打个招呼而已。
但这个留学生以为对方真的在问什么是Good word，所以闹了笑话，不过还好，也算给他歪打正着了。 下面的故事就更有意思了。
一次，一个美国公司的管理人员给公司一个驻外分部发了一份传真，要求对方把职员。

6.英语小知识
让我们学习一些有趣的小知识吧。
以下是一些的英语和汉语对手指的称呼： 1.thumb ：大拇指。与汉语相映成趣的是，英语的all(fingers and ) thumbs也表示"笨手笨脚"的意思，例如：（1）I'm all fingers and thumbs this morning. I don't seem to be able to button up my shirt.今天早上我的手怎么这么笨呢，好像连衬衫都扣不上了。
（2）He was so excited that his fingers were all thumbs and he dropped the teacup.他激动得手都不好使了，竟把茶杯摔了。2. forefinger ：又称index finger，即食指。
前缀fore-表示"位置靠前的"（placed at the front），所以从排位上说，forefinger应为"第一指"。从功用上看，此手指伸出时有标示或指向的作用。
在一些英语工具书中，我们会见到这样的表示"参见"（index）含义的手型符号。3. middle finger ：中指。
此指居中，名正言顺，且与汉语说法也一致。4. ring finger：无名指。
从世界各地的婚俗习惯来说，结婚戒指（wedding ring）戴在这一手指（通常指左手）之上，表示已婚。5. little finger： 顾名思义为小指。
在美国和苏格兰，人们又赋予它一个爱称，管pinkie(pinky)，后缀-ie(-y)有"小巧可爱"之意。和时间有关的英语趣味小知识职场英语 2010-02-24 17:52:16 阅读264 评论0 字号：大中小 订阅 （一） 时间是金，其值无价1. Time is money.（时间就是金钱或一寸光阴一寸金）2. Time flies.（光阴似箭，日月如梭）3.
