Learning English

My vets are fantastic, and over the years we have helped them with their English. When I first started going to the vets they spoke limited English, and often would struggle with basic words. I like to think that we have taught them valuable words over the years, such as colors, breeds, and  vital words like "twat" and "fuck"

These two key words can be heard coming out of my mouth at least 50 times a day, and if I'm really annoyed they come out at least triple that amount.




So, it was only natural that the vets would eventually ask what "twat" meant. So, we explained, and now he uses it often, to describe other rescues, the cleaner, and even random people.

There are some words and phrases that sound odd as he has a Spanish twang, like puppies..... that always sounds like boobies. Which when you have a school playground humor like mine, always makes me laugh.... "Louise you have nice poopies"

If you ever listen to one of our conversations you would think we were insane, well more than normal.

One day I told him about the sheep, in his twang he said ship.... So there is me going no.... sheeeeeeeeeeeeeep not ship, and him repeating sheeeeeeeeeeeeep , and me explaining that a ship goes on the water, and a sheep goes baaaaa. Although he often forgets the crucial words I teach him, I do love the fact that he uses the word Twat in a sentence at least once  a day now!
