David Caruso - "H" means "Sex addict" in Japanese!

Different countries.
Different languages.
One word. Two different meanings!

"CSI Miami" is becoming very popular in the land of the rising sun. Some Japanese people like to watch the English version of the show while others prefer the Japanese dubbing.
In the English version everyone calls Horatio Caine (David Caruso) by the nickname of "H."

Read and be amused how English words/nicknames get a very different meaning when they are uttered in Japan!
