For example, if I wanted to say "zanahoria" (carrot) in English (without any knowledge), I would say "zanahory".

I remember me and my old buds used to imitate English, and we really couldn't distinguish it from Chinese, that's how strange it sounded to us. So, we'd just say anything that comes in mind...like giberish and nonsense...but now, it seems, wait it's not so strange...ha! I guess that's one way to undersdand someone else's customs and stuff...you have to learn the language...because languages usually have close ties with the ppl that speak them...and the way they speak it, and how they sound..and expressions and stuff definitely say alot about some ppl as a nation or in a region. So I think, if I learnd Japanese, maybe I wont think it's really that rediculous afterall.
