It's fun living with an ESL student
Her: How many people come to party saturday?

Me: I don't know for sure. I invited a shitload of people.

Her: How many is "shitload"? I am not knowing this number.

11. I don't think so. The TV here is pretty bad. Some channels don't even come on until 6 or 7 pm
Peep show hasn't come on yet! I just checked. Looks like late this evening. They do have a lot of "My name is Earl" and "Friends" though.

4. Where is the student from?
The syntax sounds eastern or Indian?

I had a neighbor who hosted an Indian woman who was working in town for a while.

One night while we were sitting and talking, she laughed at a joke of mine and said, "Oh my, do you have the nuts!"

"Do I have the nuts?"

"Yes, you are crazy. You must have the nuts."

19. Yup, that's me. Crazy-ass Brazilian-born Spanish citizen who spends his time arguing with Canadians
on a site about US politics.

13. I hope you explained that it's more than an assload and less than a fuckton.
And, of course, far less than a metric fuck tonne.

20. It's fun being around them
One of my kids (Korean) was a very hard-working learner. He would keep a notebook full of American slang and then would inquire about definitions. I told him what a "doobie" was. I heard him asking a teacher what "going commando" meant. The teacher (a male) didn't know, so I explained it to him. "I understand," he said, while his face lit up. "But I wouldn't do it because I sweat too much."
