      Foreign word Misinterpretation - Game

      Easy rules. A person gives a word in foreign language and the other person interprets it based on what it sounds like to them. The other person then gives a word for the next person and so on.

      Example: Person 1: Bizcocho ( cake in spanish )

      Person 2: Hmm! Sounds like someone who's in the business of selling used couches.

      I'll start with ( a ):

      Moukari ( hammer in finnish )

      Sounds like some soup served at an Asian restaurant.

      It seems like it'd give more organic results if the meaning is put in a spoiler tag instead of listed right next to the word, as that can affect the next person's thoughts on the word, even if they try to ignore it.

      Krevet is definitely a regular tie, that's what it is. Probably because it sounds similar to how we spell it here ( kravaatti ).

      Everything works out in the end, sometimes even badly.
