Finnish class.
Teacher: "sosiaalinen means someone social, who likes to be amongst people. Epäsosiaalinen is someone who doesn't"
Me, after many years in Britain: "and how you call someone antisocial?"
Teacher: "what do you mean?"
Me: "you know, like in anti-social behaviour".
Teacher: ...
Me: "like someone who plays loud music at night, breaks bottles on the pavement, shouts at people at the street".
Teacher (unsure): "You mean somebody with mental disorder?"
I like Finland :-)
