After a pause for few seconds, she asked:

Conversation with a girl on the Subway in NYC :

和一个妹子在纽约市地铁上的对话:

Her:"Are you from India?"

她:“你来自印度吗?”

Me:"Yes"

我:“是的。”

Her:"Really unfair how we Americans just start talking about Slumdog millionaire everytime we talk to an Indian"

她:“我们美国人每次说到印度就只会开始谈论《贫民窟的百万富翁》,怎么能这样,这太不公平了。”

Me(Surprised because I'd never heard that before):"Ya, that's really annoying"

我(很惊讶,因为我之前从没听说过):“啊,那确实挺讨厌。”

Her:"I mean India isn't all slums, I was in Dubai last year, you guys lead a pretty luxurious lifestyle, dunno why only word about slums goes around"

她:“我是说印度不全是贫民窟,我去年在迪拜,你们过着非常奢侈的生活,我不知道为什么只有关于贫民窟的传言。”

Me - "huh??"

我——“哈?”

Her:"I guess its mainly because of states like Pakistan and Bangladesh!"

她:“我猜这主要是因为巴基斯坦和孟加拉那样的州!”

Me – speechless

我——无语了。

The most illogical question that every student in India must have been asked by his/her teacher:

在印度,每个的学生都曾被他/她的老师问到的最没有意义的问题:

"Homework kaisa bhul gaye ? Kabhi khaana khana bhulte ho ?"

Translation:

翻译过来就是:

"How did you forget doing your Homework? Do you ever forget eating food ?"

“你怎么能忘记做作业?你有忘记过吃东西吗?”

Just doesn't make sense.

这根本就说不通啊。
