[kj] (OT) English Lessons

[Brendan Quinn]

Stage 1 philosophy has to get around the fact that Kant is pronounced
exactly like cunt. (He was a pretty smart Kant too.)

Every language teacher I've had made it a point to even at least lightly
touch on swear words  and bad, unintended puns (i.e. dick is thick in
german, and gifts are poison, and "cool" in french means.. well, you all
know) so one can better suffer "the slings and arrows" of the natives should
things get complicated. Can you imagine a UK'er at a No on Proposition 8
rally saying he's tired and wants to "smoke a fag"? "Dead man walking.. dead
man walking!"
