Here's a link to some Japanese guy's site. He's obviously good enough at English to communicate clearly, but clearly not good enough to understand tact.

Be sure there is nothing in your mouth before following that link. You have been warned.

I figured it out... *shudder*

The synonym for "construction" is the same as a word which I went through and replaced for "election" in Bush's first post-election news conference. (I thought the results were funny.)

My SO is Japanese...

She called me the other day to report that she'd just heard on the radio how some other Japanese person called in and kept making that same transposition, but from linquistic inability rather than deliberate snarkiness.

She was so happy that she could make fun of someone else about that for a change. I'm rubbing off on her. Not that you need to know that, I suppose. Sort of personal, actually. Don't look, you perv!
