A slightly translated Dutch joke This is a Dutch joke where the dialog is spoken in English: A Dutchman and an Englishman are sitting next to each other on an airplane. They start to make small talk and the Englishman asks the Dutchman what he does for a living. The Dutchman proudly says ""I fok horses!"" (Fok == breed) Shocked, the Englishman exclaims ""Pardon?!?"" The Dutchman smiles and replies, ""Yes! Paarden!"" (Paarden == horses)
