John: Gosh£¬ I got so embarrassed today at the office. May: What happened? John: We're talking about learning different languages and how exciting it can be sometimes when you actually meet and chat with the person from that country. May: And? John: I said that I studied Spanish for about 3 years in my university. May: That's right. You speak good Spanish. I forgot about that. John: Well£¬ I got so excited that I tried to fix my manager's pronunciation when he asked "where did you learn Spanish?" in Spanish. May: Oh£¬ no. John: Yeah£¬ everybody laughed and told me that he worked in Spain for 10 years! May: His mother is Spanish so he speaks the language fluently. You tried to teach a fish how to swim! John: I had no idea!
