first of all, i shall ask you a question.......
Q: is 'zha dou' a bad or impolite word?
if your answer is a 'no', you shall scroll down. lol
the story goes like this....
once upon a time.....
so on monday after my gu-zheng practice i sms my teacher to tell her something. WHICH does not require a reply. but she replied 'ok' somehow.
her comes the zha dou part.
so i replied her,
Hui: 'zha dou, those sms no need reply wan la. haha'
i normally wouldn't add a zha dou infront when sms-ing with an adult. but b4 i send that sms i was sms-ing with my fren, so kinda haven change my sms-ing-friends-mode to sms-ing-an-adult-mode. and i think zha dou wasn't a bad word anyway. so clicked 'send'.
so then i went downstairs i did other stuff,went i came back upstairs my teacher had replied.
i simply open my phone and saw this reply.
Teacher: mind your manners.

i was totally shocked and stunned for a sec or more.
i have lived for 15 years and i had never been called by someone to mind MY manners!!!
i was super scared okay.
then i just simply replied 'sorry' although i didn't know wat i did wrong. i din dare to ask her where did i offend her. and i worried that maybe 'zha dou' is a bad word....somehow. maybe of the origin of the word or isit really an impolite word to say.
i kept thinking about that incident even b4 i sleep.
so i consulted my fren for that word and all replied that it ain't a bad word.
so the freakin next day, i brought up my guts to sms her
Hui: 'but teacher, zha dou not a bad word also. so where did i offend you?'
forcing me not to have a second thought i quickly pressed 'send'.
10mins later.....
you know what she reply me??!?!?!??!
ya know ya know?!??!?!?!?!?
teacher: 'what is the meaning of the word? 'silly'? anyway do not use that word while you speak to anyone especially your teacher. and i already accepted your apology.'
i was dumbstruck. i seriously am.
=.=!!!
so i replied,
'zha dou(cantonese)= zha dao(chinese)= alamak(malay)= swt(english). teacher it is really not a bad word. seriously.'
i think she was fed up of me and replied 'ok la!'
with the exclamation mark behind.
oops. next week practice i die. but really mah zha dou also not a bad word. i think she misunderstood zha dou as 'zhu tou'(pig head). maybe lo. dono la.
i damn zha dou that time.
ZHA DOU!!!!
and they lived happily ever after......
~THE END~
ps: luckily my teacher doesn;t use the com. or not if she accidently reach this page. i am as well kicked out of her class.
