වරදින ඉංග්රීසි
බලන්ඩ ඔයාලටත් මෙහෙම වැරදුනාද කියල, වැරදිනං නිවැරදි විදිය දැනගමු.
රතු පාට අකුරින් තියෙන්නෙ හරි විදිය.
1. We will see us - We will see each other. This is not foreshadowing of a mirror that will be arriving in the future. The "us" is substituted for "each other" in many other sentences too.
2. I wait you - I wait for you. Because the word "for" is built into their verb, they leave it out when speaking English.
3. Say me - Tell me. This is just because "say" and "tell" are the same word in other languages, so they had a 50/50 chance and picked wrong.
4. Explain me - Explain to me. This is not an existential question, the "to" is built into their verb.
5. Ask to me - Ask me. So this is like the inverse of the one before.
6. Look to me - Look at me. Just more of the above. The list of these is actually quite long, but I'll stop here. (You're welcome)
7. I lost the bus - I missed the bus. First time I heard this, I was like, "Well, where did you put it last?"
8. I win you - I beat you. I am not some prize to be won! Ok, maybe I am, if you're nice.
