I was sitting in my Japanese class one day and the professor designates someone to do the traditional response of respect which was standing up and staying "Kiritsu" which means "Please stand up" because the professor has entered the classroom. Then we all say good evening. Then we do the same thing at the end of the day. Anyway, it was my duty for the week and one class session we were learning the phrase "suki desu" during the entire class period. It means "I like." So I got up and I said "Suki desu" right at the professor! I didn't realize what happened until he started giggling a bit and said "I know you do. The entire class started laughing. I couldn't stop laughing and my classmate had to do the kiritsu for me.
