The most embarrassing was when my mom apologized to the people we were staying with because her “pants were dirty”. They looked at her in amazement, not knowing how to react. You see, mom had fallen over and gotten mud on her jeans. But in Britain, “pants” means underpants or knickers(内裤；衬裤), not trousers as it does back home.
