Hong Kong + Malaysian — HK1 : 359
S1 = Hong Kong male
S2 = Malaysian female
Context: They are talking about the visit by S1 to Bulgaria, and the use of the Cyrillic script, especially the symbol 'Я'.
S1 : you know the roman letter the <spel> r </spel> you know is this and then (.) you know russia you know (.) it's (.) reverse you know
Intended Words : reverse
Heard as : be worse
Discussion : Although the medial consonant in reverse seems to be a reasonably clear [v], S1 still fails to understand the word.
In addition, S2 is not familiar with the Cyrillic script, and the symbol 'Я'. Her lack of familiarity with the reversed 'R' symbol contributed to the problem.
