  Like most English children, I learned foreign languages at school.When I made my first visit to the United States, I was sure I could have a nice easy holiday without any language problem.But how wrong I was!

  At the American airport, I was looking for a public telephone to tell my friend Danny I had arrived.A worker asked if he could help me.“Yes,” I said, “I want to give my friend a ring.” “Well, that’s nice.Are you getting married?” he asked.“No,” I replied.“I just want to tell her on the phone I have arrived.” “Oh,” he said, “ there is a phone downstairs on/he first floor.” “But we’re on the first floor now,” I said.“Well, I don’t know what you are talking about.Maybe you aren’t feeling well after your journey.” he said.“You just go and wash up, and you will feel a lot better.” And he went off, leaving me wondering where on earth I was, at home we wash up after a meal to get the cups and plates clean.How can I wash up at an airport?

  At last we did meet.She explained the misunderstanding.Americans say “ to give someone a call,” but we English say “to give somebody a ring”.When we say “to wash your hands”, they say “to wash up”.And Englishmen start numbering from the ground floor, so the first floor is the second for Americans.
