This evening I have received an email from an adult student, addressing two teachers and a group of colleagues, as 'Dears'. I have the deep desire to reply to her as 'sweetie' (she could probably handle it as we know each other well and get on), but will restrain myself and just teach her 'Dear all' next time I see her. My own mistakes are much worse and seem to involve a sexual innuendo every single time. It's a good thing that I look too innocent to have actually meant them!Flosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18098894367955345944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1341483723976821096.post-17967687142923781692014-06-18T19:43:39.441+01:002014-06-18T19:43:39.441+01:00Aha, yes I remember that Gifte was a false friend!...Aha, yes I remember that Gifte was a false friend!

They would insist on addressing us using the formal form of 'you'. We would say "No,no...we are friends". No no in Spanish means 'not'. So we kept unintentionally telling them we were not friends, they kept using the formal 'you' and it all got a bit confusing !<br />Jane xJane and Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08102086552682194819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1341483723976821096.post-63894346641590958412014-06-18T11:00:23.857+01:002014-06-18T11:00:23.857+01:00That would be ON not IN, Gaz!!
