In 999 out of 1000 "funny" interpretations of words from one language, English speakers laugh at non-English words interpreted as if they were English. Very rarely, the joke goes the other way around. If you tell how English words may be laughable in other languages, you make an ignorent fool of yourself, not knowing the true (i.e. English) meaning of those words.

I'll give you one example: If your name is Stephen Cook, do NOT introduce yourself by the common nickname "Steve" in Norway. "Steve Cook" is pronounced like the Norwegian word a hardened male anatomical appendage. For some reason, Americans don't find that funny at all.
