FTD, you must not be from the south.
Here, if one doesn't understand something another person says in another language, but doesn't want anyone to think they're an idiot, they make a joke out of what was said with one of three things:
"you do and you'll clean it up"
or
"you stepped in what?"
or
"that's what SHE said!"
Try it out some time. You'll get a good laugh.
BTW, that last one makes everything sound dirty
