Spanish fun, even after all these years.

I have recently been tested at a EFR level C1.8 of Spanish.  I say this not to brag, but to set up the fun failure I'm going to tell you about.  I am, for all intents and purposes, fluent.

Yet, today, I was not.  I was explaining to my teacher class what a "formula" is for a movie, and I used the romantic comedy as an example.  I tried to say that the climax would be where the hero runs through the airport.  Instead, I said that the climax would be where the hero has a bullfight in the airport.  Which would, certainly, be quite climactic.

Yes, boys and girls.  Corrida does not equal carrera.
