I know exactly how this feels. People don't understand how hard it is to make yourself speak their language. There are days when my English escapes me and I wish people could meet me where I am, not where they are.

True. They don't realize sometimes you are translating in your mind and often there's a word or phrase you do not understand and then they get annoyed or speak to you slow and loud, as if you're deaf.. like that helps.

Your English is good, though. In fact, I learnt some from you.

Actually, while on topic, just recently discovered another word for soup - booyah - or something like that. :/

Booyah?

That's what people say in exclamation. I didn't think it had another meaning. Hmm.

I think booyah is French Canadian. Or at that is what Granny thinks

I was wondering where you were and hope you are feeling much better

Getting there, Juni, thanks. Did post the reason in LLC2 last week.

Apparently, booyah is also slang used as an exclamation or something. It's definately a word I won't forget now.

figures. I`d learn a new word just when it becomes uncool

Try the soup;yummy!! Left over soup gets the broths of the separate cookings and thickened to make stew. Rich and hearty

When I first read it and thought soup, my mind went to Jerry Seinfeld and the soup nazi...

I thought what the heck

The Soup Nazi is a real person. You can even buy his soups in a grocery store called Publix.

I knew he was real but didn`t know his soup was for sale in a store

Seinfeld sure got a lot of milage out of the infamous soup nazi!
