In my mind, in the Castle where I am the King

Most Americans usually compliment me on my English, but now my personal assistant SIRI finally let’s me know in a not so subtile way that I am not quite there yet.

Yesterday I needed to know the dollar to euro exchange rate, so I asked her:

“How many euros are there in a dollar”

This resulted in some hilarious searches:

  • “How many euros under in the door”
  • “How many euros on getting a bowler”
  • “How many euros are there in a door”
  • “How many euros are there any Mendola”
  • “How many euros are there in Dolomar”
    (according to wookieepedia:
    The Dolomar sector was a sector located within the Core Worlds. Planets in the sector included Balfron, Caprioril, Dolomar, Kamparas, Pantolomin, Phorliss and Wor Tandell) 
  • “How many euros are there in the Belarre”
  • “How many euros are there in the Gollarre”
It took some effort to stay polite, but on my eight effort she finally understood me and came up with an answer from Wolfram:
I guess we need to work on our relation for a bit (and I need to work on my accent).
