Maybe

I've been chuckling about this for days. The Spanish word for "maybe" is "quizás."

In Spanish, "qui" is pronounced like "key." The letter 'z' in Spanish is pronounced more like an 's'.

The end result is that 'quizás' is pronounced "keys as" but when I hear it, it actually comes across as "kiss ass."

Worker: "Hey boss! Can I get a raise?"

Spanish speaking boss: "Quizás."

HAHAHAAH - Like I said, I've been laughing about that for days.
