Final Word from Friday, July 11, 2008



Breakdowns in communication are a leading cause of divorce, and the problem is exacerbated if the two spouses can't speak the same language. Empirical evidence suggests that mixed marriages often fail in the CR because the spouses initially communicate with body language in the horizontal position. Once the novelty wears off and one of them learns the other's language, they often find they don't actually like each other very much. That's when the bilingual shouting matches begin, with each side spitting out hateful insults in rapid-fire exchanges the other can't comprehend. And so it will be with the grand new plan, as reported by MFD, to go to Vietnam to hire nurses. It'll be love at first sight - quality labor for a cheap price - but imagine the language problem! The first time the doctor diagnoses erythema, and the Vietnamese nurse gives the patient an enema, it'll be time to file for divorce.[Czech Republic separation marital problems]
