Lost in Translation

My sister's coach from Holland approached her the other day to ask her if she could compete in an exhibition match. It went like this:

Coach: Are you an exhibitionist?

My sister: What? NO!

Coach: Why not?

My sister: I like to keep my clothes on.

Coach: What the hell are you talking about?

My sister: What are you talking about?

Coach: Did you sign up in January to play exhibition matches? Are you an exhibitionist?

My sister: Oh... (continues to explain what 'exhibitionist' means)

Coach: My God, the English language is ridiculous.
