在法國度過的感恩節(jié)

在移居國外之后的第一個感恩節(jié)，我決定請家人吃一頓傳統(tǒng)的火雞晚餐。
我就近去了一家商場，碰巧這是一家講法語的商場，我就直接走到擺放各種肉類的地方。我的法語不是很好，但我想自己看看是否能夠確認(rèn)那塊大的胸肉是火雞還是鵝。
屠夫表示他可以幫助我。我用蹩腳的法語問他是否會說英語，他回答說：“不?！蔽矣?span style="font-family: 宋體;font-size: 16px;">試了一次，問他是否會說德語，他再次回答說：“不?！?/span>
我指著那塊胸肉，然后把我的拇指夾在我的腋窩下，拍打著胳膊說：“咕咕，咕咕？”
屠夫哈哈大笑，回答說：“是的。”
我當(dāng)然是很尷尬，但最終我買到了火雞，屠夫得到了一次開懷大笑！

A Thanksgiving in France
The first Thanksgiving after moving overseas, I decided to treat my family to a traditional turkey dinner.
I went to the closest store, which happened to be French-speaking, and approached the area where a variety of meats were laid out. Not being fluent in French, I looked and tried to determine on my own whether the large poultry breasts I saw were turkey or goose.
The butcher indicated that he was ready to help me. I asked in broken French if he spoke English; he replied, 'No.' I tried again, asking if he spoke German; again, he replied, 'No.'
I pointed at the poultry breasts, then tucked my thumbs in my armpits, flapped my arms, and said, 'Gobble, gobble?'
The butcher broke into a smile as he replied, 'Oui.'
Embarrassing, sure, but I ended up with a turkey and the butcher got a laugh!
