Random thoughts Stray memories

Thursday, July 19, 2001

I was reading 8 Days while commuting to work this morning and came across this interview with comedians Mark Lee and Gurmit Singh. Mark's struggle with English is well-known (and actually quite endearing) and this particular bit tickled me. I'm surrounded by heavy breathers then. lol.

Mark: It's okay. I learn a lot of things. Like must listen out for the vowel sound. Also, my teacher is teaching me breathing. When you speak English, you must do the breathing.
Gurmit: What, when you speak Chinese, you don't need to breathe?
Mark: Must breathe also, but speak English must breath more.
