I just learnt today that in Malay, tuhan is god, and hantu is ghost.
Hmmmm….
Later, I learnt that mata air (mata is eye, air is water) is boyfriend/girlfriend (it can also mean fountain or well), and air mata is tears.
The result of the reversals?
P.S. I’m sure there are more of such examples. Tell me if you know of more.
