ahahahaha...noy and judy, my mom pronounces all those words exactly the same way...including the names!

i have a cousin named chris also (well, christopher), so his name always gets butchered. sometimes he's kwit/kit, and other times, he's kit/kwit-tha-fuh(pronounced like pho, the noodles). lmao

i'd have to say that my all time favorite FOB word in the family would be see-yo-yo, which is my grandma's attempt at saying cereal. she's a little more FOB than my mom, aunts and uncles...obviously. haha as for my mom and aunts, and stuff, they got it down a little better. they've advanced to 'silly-yo'.

you got to hear it from my aunt. she said it was scary but she laughed so hard when she talk about it.

i love this thread. so funny. it brighten my dull days.

okay here is another one. this one about my youngest sister. she was also born in the states as well but her english was terrible in elementary school. the school had a professional somebody come over to test my sister's IQ cause she was doing real bad in school. she is damn lucky, she was about to be held back a grade three freaking time but didnt. anyways i sat there in the living room with my mom, sisters and the professional dude, he asked my sister to give him the definition of crash. her answer literally, "crash was when you crash-ed into something" i burst out laughing like i was going to die and my other sister was able to hold it in until she ran into the bedroom to laugh her ass off- she was a fifth grader at the time. you guys should have been there.

this one about my dad, so embarrassing i had my white friend over, my siblings were in the living room as well, my dad was siting in those folding chair and like in a few minutes the chair collapsed and we all laughed including my mom [not my white friend] she was respectful. and then he got up yelling at the chair, well, more like cursing in broken english. he said something like this, stupid chair you are a bitch. why you fucker shit. blah blah blah. omg i was dying from laughter and embarrassed at the same time. hahaha should have seen my dad's face and my mom was like you deserved it. and later when he was bitching at the chair, my mom said he was a crazy man, the chair dont understand him.

LMAO LMAO AHAHHAHSHSHHAHA!! i don't ever get to hear my parents cuss, 'cuz they weren't exposed to it that much, being that they never associated with westerners or any other asian people who were associated with the westerners. but i've heard my aunts and uncle do say those words on rare occasions. when they do, it's not just broken, but completely used wrong overall...just like when your dad said 'why you fucker shit'. LOL and i bet it sounded more like 'fuk-uh', 'bish', and 'siot'.

Mom: "noy, bai ow meow ma" [noy, go get the mail]
Me: "huh? meow? ow thou meow mah tah sai" [huh? cat? get the cat from where?] :loool: :loool:

Thanks for sharing all these stories guys, esp. the one with the stereo (~Sandy~)

Yes Amikrazie, during my childhood my parents were mad that we always talk in French (with brother and sister), or mixed French Chinese when we talk to them. My mom set a game that for the one that speaks full Chinese will get some money. Of course, years years years later, no one has ever won a piece ! And the fact is that even my parents mix French and Chinese now when they talk with us.

Now, there is also the inverse trend. I'm also Cambodian, but I didn't learn the language so when they talk about things that isn't "hearable" for children, they did it in Khmer. Now, years years years later too, I do understand some words or idioms, so I know if it's something about me, about my bro, my sister, or other people... My cousin also, she doesn't speak Khmer but when her mom talks on the phone in Khmer, she understands all the convo. (After asking her mom if it was this thing that she said earlier).

 

[amikrazie]

you guys are so lucky to have parents that speak multi-languages...if my parents knew more than one languages i would of made them teach me all of them. lol

the more the better.

too bad my parents only speaks khmer.

so i have to go out and learn on my own..

oh when you hear them talk about sex, i just want to die cause it is so damn funny that i cant even explain it. it took me awhile to know that they were talking about sex term/saying. lmao

my sisters and i use the pig lang. and other codes of lang. kind of funny. i think it is call the k language. every word you say ends with saying k. kind of hard to understand unless you pay close attention for example, i-k go-k store-k. say it fast though, not easy huh especially when it is a long long conversation and phrase.
