we learn german and i went on an exchange. my exchange partner (her mum being a teacher) asked me when i come over from england 2 germany 2 bring my german work. in yr7 we did work on objects in the classroom. so i had notes saying things like gummi menaing rubber. but the germans translated it as condom and thought (and probably still think) that we were taught about condoms! they were very religious family and they didnt treat me the same 4 the whole week!
