Hotelreception i Malaysia.
Malin: Where can we eat breakfast tomorrow?
Receptionist (med grov asiatisk brytning): We don't have breakfast.
Malin: You don't have breakfast?
R: Yes.
Malin: You have breakfast?
R: No. You must go to the coffe house.
Malin: And the coffe house is..?
R (sorgset): Oh, we don't have a coffe house.
Malin: You don't have a coffe house??
R: Yes.
Malin: But... You have a coffe house?
R: No, I'm sorry.
Malin: But where can we eat breakfast?
R: Coffe house.
Malin: But there is no coffe house?
R: Yes.
Malin: There is?
R: No.
Malin: So... You don't serve breakfast?
R: Yes yes.
Malin: And there is no coffe house?
R: Yes yes.
Malin: Thanks, good night.
R: Yes yes.
