No hablo Espanol, senor.
This reminds me of something that happened in prison in 2006.  I was cellies in the SHU (solitary, sort of) with a Mexican, who was illiterate in both English and Spanish.  He'd received some sort of official letter, in Spanish, probably from the Mexican government.  I don't understand (nearly all) Spanish, but I understood, in general, how to pronounce Spanish.  So, I "read" the letter to him, not understanding it at all, and HE understood what I was reading!  I was careful to explain to him that despite the fact I was reading it in Spanish, I had no idea what I was reading actually meant.       Jim Bell
