My wife is Venezuelan. My wife speaks fluent English…oddly enough, it’s the Spanish thats the problem. The other day, I was backing the car out of a parking spot, she got out and directed me from behind.because I couldn’t
see anything, she’s my wife so I put my trust in her. As I went into reverse i asked if I was good, her reply was “Yeah yeah yeah yeah, then Ya!” I heard 4 yeahs then a ya. And then I heard my car smash into a parked BMW. I yelled, “what planet are you from?” And she explained in Spanish, yeah is yes, and Ya means stop. I’m German so ya means yea, so I heard 5 Yeses, I’m also Jewish so I told her to get the fuck back in the car, and we got the fuck out of there.
