A Mexican man who spoke no English went into a department store to buy socks.
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
He found his way to the menswear department where a young lady offered to help him.
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
“Quiero calcetines,” said the man.
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
“I dont speak Spanish, but we have some very nice suits over here,” said the salesgirl.
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
“No, no quiero trajes. Quiero calcetines,” said the man.
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
“Well, these shirts are on sale this week,” declared the salesgirl.
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
“No, no quiero camisas. Quiero calcetines,” repeated the man.
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
“I still dont know what youre trying to say. We have some fine pants on this rack,” offered the salesgirl.
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
“No, no quiero pantalones. Quiero calcetines,” insisted the man.
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
“These sweaters are top quality,” the salesgirl probed.
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
“No, no quiero sueter. Quiero calcetines,” said the man.
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
“Our undershirts are over here,” fumbled the salesgirl, beginning to lose patience.
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
“No, no quiero camisetas. Quiero calcetines,” the man repeated.
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
As they passed the underwear counter, the man spotted a display of socks and happily grabbed a pair. Holding them up he proclaimed, “<strong>Eso sí que es!</strong>
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
“Why didnt you just spell it in the first place?!” yelled the salesgirl.
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
Edit: Thanks for the awards guys! Appreciate it.
