A Thai Tour Guide who spoke fluent English, was having coffee and croissants with butter and jam in a Thailand cafe when an American tourist, chewing gum, sat down next to him…The Thai politely ignored the American, who, nevertheless, started up a conversation.

The American snapped his gum and said, “You Thai folk eat the whole bread?” The Thai frowned, annoyed with being bothered during his breakfast, replied, “Of course.” The American blew a huge bubble, “We don’t. In the States, we only eat what’s inside. The crusts we collect in a container, recycle them, transform them into croissants and
sell them to Thailand”…

The American had a smirk on his face. The Thai listened in silence. The American persisted, “D’ya eat jam with the bread?” Sighing, the Thai replied, “Of course.” Cracking his gum between his teeth, the American said, “We don’t. In the States, we eat fresh fruit for breakfast, then we put all the peels, seeds, and leftovers in containers, recycle them, transform them into jam and sell it to Thailand”…

The Thai then asked, “Do you have sex in the States?” The American smiled and said, “Why of course we do.” The Thai leaned closer to him and asked, “And what do you do with the condoms once you’ve used them?” “We throw them away of course”…

Now it was the Thai Tour Guide’s turn to smile, “We don’t. In Thailand, we put them in a container, recycle them, melt them down into chewing gum and sell them to the United States…Why do you think it’s called Wrigleys?”…

Reasons The English language is so hard for Thai people to learn…

1) The bandage was wound around the wound.
2) The farm was used to produce produce.
3) The dump was so full that it had to refuse more refuse.
4) Polish the Polish furniture.
5) He could lead if he would get the lead out.
6) The soldier decided to desert his dessert in the desert.
7) Since there is no time like the present, he thought it was time to present the present.
A bass was painted on the head of the bass drum.
9) When shot at, the dove dove into the bushes.
10) I did not object to the object.
11) The insurance was invalid for the invalid.
12) There was a row among the row of oarsmen about how to row.
13) They were too close to the door to close it.
14) The buck does funny things when the does are present.
15) A seamstress and a sewer fell into a sewer.
16) To help with planting, the farmer taught his sow to sow.
17) The wind was too strong to wind the sail.
18) After a number of injections my jaw got number.
19) Upon seeing the tear in the painting I shed a tear.
20) I had to subject the subject to a series of tests.
21) How can I intimate this to my most intimate friend?

Let’s face it…English is a crazy language…There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger…Neither apple nor pine in pineapple…English muffins weren’t invented in England or French fries in France…Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads which aren’t sweet are meat…

We take English for granted…But if we explore its paradoxes we find that quicksand can work slowly…Boxing rings are square…And a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig…And why is it that writers write but fingers don’t fing…Grocers don’t groce and hammers don’t ham…If the plural of tooth is teeth why isn’t the plural of booth beeth…One goose 2 geese…So one moose 2 meese…One index 2 indices…Doesn’t it seem crazy that you can make amends but not one amend…If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of all but one of them…What do you call it…If teachers taught why didn’t preachers praught…If a vegetarian eats vegetables…What does a humanitarian eat…

Sometimes I think all the English speakers should be committed to an asylum for the verbally insane…In what language do people recite at a play and play at a recital…Ship by truck and send cargo by ship…Have noses that run and feet that smell…How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same…While a wise man and a wise guy are opposites…

You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language in which your house can burn up as it burns down…In which you fill in form by filling it out…And in which an alarm goes off by going on…

English was invented by people not computers…And it reflects the creativity of the human race…Which isn’t a race at all…

That is why when the stars are out they are visible…But when the lights are out they are invisible…
