I was one month into my first physics lab in college before I finally figured out what the frush a "capsito" was.

My saving grace was that no one else knew the TA was trying to say "capacitor" either. There was a collective sigh of "oooohhh" when it finally came to light.

SPEAK ENGRISH!

I'm glad you guys found the menu picture. That restaurant is still here, by the way, and the menu has become the stuff of urban legend, even around here.

Remember this beauty?

"The operation of the treat water discharge pump without aeration causes obturation and strong precautions must be taken."

Well, perhaps in this case they were referring to treated wastewater and that would mean that the word was misspelled - the right word would be obturdation. And yes, that is very bad.
