Linguistic Loopholes That Confuse Or Amuse

I know a non-Catholic sign language interpreter. Somebody got to talking about the papacy but didn't refer to it that way, they mentioned The Holy See. Which got interpreted as HOLY OCEAN.

HOLY verb-SEE didn't make any sense to him, so he went with the only concept that did make sense, even if only a little.


My friend taught me O Come All Ye Faithful in sign language. I was blown away by the theological beauty of the signs. 'Christ' is pointing to the middle of each palm to signify the nails.
