Not Hindi, but Spanish...well, Mexican.
I was 18 and quite naive when I went into the military...right off the farm.
Foxy little Senorita at the local eatery like to flirt w/me...so I asked my Calif.-born Mexican buddy how to say "You are cute." to her.
Well, he coached me until I had the it all down...including the native lilt.
Next time she waited on me, I said, "Es un Coņo." to her with a smile.
That didn't turn out well - to say the least.
I never went back.

California boys had a good laugh on that one.
