Oh what happens to ones vocabulary



I've been getting used to using the most simple words to communicate with my co workers and people in my neighborhood. They are all trying to understand English and I really don't speak much Korean. So... it's simple phrases said slowly most of the time for me.
But the side affect is when I'm out with some other expats and I was trying to explain I'm not on the subway line, but I'm right near one of the bus depots... it came out as something along the lines of you know... where the buses sleep at nights. Yeah... it was bad... but it was also funny. Every one I was with teaches ESL and has had at least one of those sorts of brain farts.

But yeah my apartment is near Beomul-dong where the buses sleep at night.
