一個阿拉伯學生寄給父親的電子信件:
Dear Dad,
Berlin is wonderful, people are nice and I really like it here, but Dad,
I am bit ashamed to arrive to my college with my Gold Mercedes, when
all my Teachers travel by train.
Your Son
Nasser
親愛的父親,
柏林非常棒,人也很親切,我很喜歡這裡。
可是,我對開著金造的賓士轎車來學校有點慚愧,因為我的老師們都是坐火車來的。
你的兒子
納瑟

Sometime later Nasser gets reply to his e-mail from his Dad
Loving Son,
Twenty Million Dollars transferred to your account, please stop
embarrassing us, go and get yourself a train too.
Your Dad
不久後,納瑟收到他父親的回信。
我深愛的兒子,
2000萬美元已轉入你的帳戶,也去買一輛火車,不要讓自己丟臉。
你的父親
