This was the question I was asked a few days ago in my beginning ESL class. Breader Pedder? As you can imagine, I needed a bit more information.
"He's old. Lots of hair on face."
Hmmm.... I needed a bit more.
Amidst a jumble of Mandarin I hear "beautiful girlfriend."
Um, Angelina Jolie?
"Yes!"
Brad Pitt?
"Aah, Brad Pitt! Yes, Brad Pitt."
Never knew Brad Pitt's alias was Breader Pedder, now did you?

That story made me smile-I'm helping with an ESL class every couple weeks. There are mainly Korean students and sometimes I have no idea what they just said and it takes some digging to figure out what they meant. Sometimes nodding and smiling and continuing on works but usually I need to know what they meant with those undistinguishable words! Hanna
