We've encountered a number of funny Spanish phrases lately.
For example, a "cocina" is a kitchen. A "cochina" is a dirty woman. Be careful.
A "coche" can mean "pig" or "car". Good luck when you're parking your pig.
If you don't want to be disturbed, you really say "No me molesta".
"Tengo miedo" is to have fear (be afraid). "Tengo mierdo" is to have crap.
"Estoy embarasada" doesn't mean "I'm embarassed". It means "I'm pregnant".
Needless to say, it's important to know what you're saying.

You forgot one.
"Tengo hambre" means I'm hungry.
"Tengo hombre" means I have a man.
I would be in trouble! It's just a mere addition/subtraction of ONE or TWO letters and it portrays a whole different meaning!! WOW!!!
