It's extremely frustrating when you want to say something in a foreign language but you don't know the words, so you have to try to find another way to say it using words you //do// know, amirite?

I once forgot how to say "toes" in French, so I said "foot fingers" instead.

My chinese is fluent and OK, but I don't know everyword. I was volunteering and raising awareness for natural disaster for redcross to the local neighborhood. I had to translate for some chinese residents... My translation for natural disasters: flood = lots and lots of water hurricane = lots and lots of wind (blowing) earthquake = earth...is moving!

If it's Spanish, I just add an "o" to the end of the English word. ex. "¡Esto es frustratingo!" Yeah, I'm fluent.
