We understand.

A mate of mine went to Japan and rang room service to order say " Bacon eggs and coffee " the Japanese hotel person replied " Hai " which means " yes " in Japanese but which sounded like " Eh ?" to my mate, so the conversation went like:

"I'll have bacon, eggs and coffee "

"Hai"

"I'll have bacon eggs and coffee "

" Hai "

" I'll have bacon eggs and coffee "

" Hai"

"I'LL HAVE FLAMIN' BACON EGGS AND COFFEE "

"Hai"
