Exactly!

A rough English translation:

A father of a boy buys an explensive fur coat (for the mother of the boy).

The boy says: "Mom, do you know that this fur coat is the result of suffering of poor animals?"

The mother answers: "How can you speak about your father this way?"

The matter is that in Lojban {lo danlu .uu} can mean both "poor animals" or "poor animal" which the mother thought was said about her husband.

mi'e .ianis.
