Crocodile Meat

Learning another language can be like walking through a minefield when it comes to innuendos. Make sure that when you try and learn the local indigenous language of Guarani that you are really asking for crocodile meat and not suggesting that you desire someone else’s wife. Make sure that when you ask a person if they heard the drums on the street that afternoon, you annunciate clearly and use tambor instead of tembor. One is a drum, the other is a Guarani word for the part of the body specific to males. Context clues should help you sort out the two.
