Random Funny Things My Mom says

So I was over at my folks for a short visit last week with the kids when I happened to notice that my Mom keeps watching the French channel. When I asked her why she said, "Your sister married a Frenchman, so I need to learn French."

Me - By watching the French news?

Mom - Yes, same like English. How you think I learn good English? From watching TV.

Me - Riiiiiiiight.

Later on that night, I come home to find my Mom still watching TV, but something has changed.

Me - I thought you said you was trying to learn French?

Mom - I am.

Me - Then why are you watching the Italian news?

Mom - Italian? Waaaaaaaah? No wonder I don't know what they talking about!

Me - Riiiiiiiight.

    Actually, French, Spanish & Italian are all relatively close, linguistically. I took High School Spanish & my friend took Italian. We were still able to converse together in our respective languages. It wasn't until I started learning Welsh (one of the oldest surviving languages on the planet,) that my brain rebelled completely & said, "You've GOT to be KIDDING me!"

    Your poor mom! I know how she feels!

    We were in Nicosia, Cyprus, during a recent holiday, and my daughter and I happened to overhear a conversation between two people. I told my youngest kid that it sounded a lot like Turkish and she looked at me like I was nuts and said, "Mom, it IS Turkish."
