A sty in my eye (English/Spanish)
I was working in Spain for a while and after about a year, I developed a very painful sty in my eye. I looked up the word for 'sty', and went off down to the pharmacy. I walked up to the counter and said the phrase I had pulled from the dictionary. The staff in the Spanish pharmacy were almost clutching their sides with laughter. It was only until I had just walked out and met up with a work friend when I realised I had told the pharmacy nurses that I had una pocilga, a pig sty, in my eye. Oh the shame...
