Only a Few Words | 几个词

English Original

At a court, a judge is interrogating a mugger but encounters difficulty because the mugger is a foreigner who doesn't speak English.

"Don't you speak English at all?" the judge asks.

"Only a few words," replies the mugger.

"What words do you know?"

"Your purse or your life!"
