Yes. I know they do not use Uncle in day to day speech. However, I think they understand what we mean when we use it.

I see. Try "Would thou marry me?"

she understands thee too.

Exactly. If the purpose is ONLY to convey the minimum message, it is good enough. Dye can do it, so can YOU.

If you are trying to convey some meaning beyond that, you will need fit better into the culture with grammar, language, and maybe maybe prop (Like some greenback or roses will be useful). It takes Sherman-level communication skill to achieve any success in asking the question.

As I said, Sherman's lanuguage skill is beyond layman like me, it may take me a lifetime learning to reach that level.

Not good enough, pal.

Don't forget to kneel -- she won't give you a nod without it.

記得以前小弟在大英帝國治下小學接受英式教育，稱呼男教師做"Sir"，女教師做"Miss".

而女教師不論是否嫁左人，都係Miss. 似乎Miss成為一種教師職業的頭銜。後來，我先知道，在鬼佬學校，已婚女教師係同非教師一樣，係稱為Mrs.乜乜 ...

係呀，呢個都好搞笑，笑到今日重係錯！係男人都係阿Sir女人都係Miss！死得！

我就努力改緊人地，以身作則，不過身邊的人樂止不疲，無能為力。唉！

最要命係中英夾雜，又不中不英！

Mr. Chan = 疹 Sir

Mr. Wong = 枉 Sir

Miss Liu = 尿搣屎

Miss Man = 抿搣屎

真係：

教人枉為Sir，一生疹不離；屎尿難抿淨，好彩當Miss。
